4K Peg + is a medicine containing Polyethylene Glycol 4000 (Macrogol 4000) (strength unknown). It is used for constipation (including chronic constipation), softening of stools, relief of difficult and painful bowel movements. It belongs to the group of medicines called Osmotic laxative (polyethylene glycol/macrogol).
Oral powder/granules: dissolve the measured dose in water (or as directed on the label) and drink. The dose and how long you take it depend on what you are being treated for and how you respond. Do not take more, or for longer, than your doctor has advised.
The side effects seen most often with 4K Peg + are diarrhoea, abdominal pain/cramps, bloating and flatulence. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.
Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how 4K Peg + works.
Most side effects of 4K Peg + are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
Oral powder/granules: dissolve the measured dose in water (or as directed on the label) and drink. Usually taken once daily; may be taken with or without food. Ensure adequate fluid intake; use for the shortest duration needed or as prescribed.
Polyethylene glycol 4000 is an osmotic laxative. It retains water in the intestinal lumen, increasing stool water content and volume, which softens stools and stimulates bowel movements.
Do not use in suspected/known intestinal obstruction, perforation, severe inflammatory bowel disease, severe dehydration, or unexplained abdominal pain without medical advice. Stop and consult a doctor if severe diarrhoea, abdominal distension, rectal bleeding, or no improvement occurs. Prolonged use may cause electrolyte imbalance, especially in elderly or those on diuretics. Use with caution in renal impairment and in patients prone to fluid/electrolyte disturbances.
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
An overdose of this medicine can cause severe loose motions, dehydration and salt imbalance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Store in a cool, dry place at room temperature. Protect from moisture and direct light. Keep container tightly closed and out of reach of children.
