Lax-A-Day Travel size pouches - 10 pack

Lax-A-Day travel size pouches are a convenient and portable way to take the psyllium husk fiber laxative for occasional constipation relief while you're on the go. 

Benefits:

• Relieves Occasional Constipation: Psyllium husk fiber in Lax-A-Day absorbs water in your gut, forming a gel-like substance that softens stool and promotes easier passage.
• Travel-Friendly: Pre-measured single-dose packets are compact and easy to carry in your luggage or purse.
• Gentle Relief: Provides a natural way to manage constipation without harsh chemicals.

Things to Consider:

• Limited Doses: A typical travel size package likely contains around 7-10 single-dose packets, suitable for short-term relief.
• Read the Label: Follow the dosage instructions on the label precisely. The usual dose is one packet mixed with at least 250ml (8oz) of water or juice, once daily.
• Increase Fiber Gradually: It's best to start with a low dose and gradually increase intake over several days, especially if you're new to fiber supplements, to minimize gas and bloating.
• Drink Plenty of Fluids: Psyllium fiber absorbs water, so adequate fluid intake is crucial to prevent constipation and ensure it works effectively.
• Not for Everyone: Consult a doctor before using Lax-A-Day if you have certain medical conditions (bowel obstruction, intestinal strictures), are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are taking other medications (especially oral medications) as psyllium fiber can affect their absorption.
• Potential Side Effects: Especially when starting, you may experience gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort. These side effects usually subside with continued use and proper hydration.
• Not a Cure: Lax-A-Day helps manage occasional constipation, but it doesn't address the underlying cause.

Alternatives:

• Larger Lax-A-Day Package: If you need more than a few days' worth of relief, consider purchasing a larger container of Lax-A-Day for home use.
• Other Fiber Supplements: Various fiber supplements are available in capsules or tablets, which might be more convenient for travel depending on your preference.

Important Note:

• Consult a Doctor for Frequent Constipation: If you experience frequent constipation (more than three times a week), consult a doctor to identify the underlying cause and recommend a suitable treatment plan.
