How to use
Adults and children 6+: one unit per 24 hours, or follow a doctor’s direction. Ages 2 to under 6 need Pedia-Lax Liquid; under 2, ask a doctor. Remove the protective shield. Following the carton’s positioning instructions, insert the tip gently toward the navel without forcing it. Squeeze, then withdraw while holding the bulb compressed; discard the unit.
Before use
Do not use for abdominal pain, nausea or vomiting without a doctor’s direction. Ask before use if bowel habits changed suddenly for more than two weeks or laxatives were used for more than one week. Rectal discomfort or burning can occur. Stop and consult a doctor for rectal bleeding or no bowel movement within one hour.
Should I empty every last drop?
No. The applicator contains more liquid than the effective delivered dose, and a little may remain after use. Do not force insertion or reuse an applicator.
Keep the carton for the illustrated instructions. Expected bowel movement: 15 minutes to one hour. For rectal use only. Keep away from children; get medical help or contact Poison Control if swallowed. Read the official Drug Facts.
