Product introduction

Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon is a laxative that helps to evacuate the intestines before procedures such as colonoscopy or to provide relief for chronic constipation. It functions by bringing water into the bowel, softening stool, and enhancing bowel movements while replacing lost electrolytes.

To maintain effective constipation relief or bowel cleansing, Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon is best taken according to prescription. Consume the complete prepared solution within the recommended time period, often in divided doses for bowel preparation. Fluid intake during treatment should be sufficient to prevent dehydration. Skipping doses or stopping early may lead to ineffective bowel cleansing, particularly before medical procedures such as colonoscopy. Always strictly adhere to your physician's instructions.


Common side effects of Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon include vomiting, nausea, bloating, Stomach fullness, and anal irritation. Inform the doctor if these symptoms get worse or last longer, and get medical advice if you experience any additional symptoms.


This drug must not be administered to patients with bowel perforation, gastrointestinal obstruction, toxic megacolon, or colitis because it exacerbates these conditions. It should be used cautiously in patients with kidney disease, heart failure, or electrolyte imbalance because of the potential for fluid shifts. There may be dehydration and excessive loss of fluid if not administered with sufficient fluid intake. Inform your doctor if you have any history of abdominal surgery or persistent nausea and vomiting before taking this medication.


Uses of Pegovag Oral Solution

Benefits of Pegovag Oral Solution

In Treatment of Dehydration

During bowel preparation or fluid loss conditions, essential electrolytes such as sodium and potassium can become depleted. Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon helps replace and sustain electrolyte levels to help maintain normal nerve, muscle, and cellular function and to avoid dehydration and complications.

In Treatment of Chronic Constipation

For individuals experiencing long-term constipation, this medicine delivers lasting relief. Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon softens the stool and its bulk by drawing in water to the bowel, making it simpler and more frequent to pass stools without straining, thus enhancing bowel comfort and digestive health.

In Intestine preparation before any surgery

For procedures such as colonoscopy or intestinal surgery, a clean bowel is necessary for precise results. Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon helps clean the intestines by pulling water into the colon, stimulating bowel movement, and guaranteeing the bowel is purged thoroughly for the procedure.

How Pegovag Oral Solution works

Pegovag Oral Solution Lemon is an osmotic laxative that retains water in the stool, making it softer and bringing about more frequent bowel movements. Sodium chloride and potassium chloride ensure the body's electrolyte balance is preserved, avoiding imbalance during bowel cleansing. Sodium bicarbonate is a buffer that protects against the action of stomach acid and facilitates pH balance. Sodium sulphate supports the laxative action by bringing in more water to the intestine. Cumulatively, it supports efficient bowel emptying with proper hydration and electrolyte balance, which makes it suitable for bowel preparation as well as the safe management of chronic constipation.
