Package contents and additional information

1. What is plantago ovata cinfa and what is it used for

plantago ovata cinfa belongs to the group of medications called bulk-forming laxatives. The active ingredient is the cuticle of the seeds of a plant called Plantago Ovata. These cuticles have a high capacity to retain liquid, increasing the volume of the fecal mass and giving it a suitable consistency to regulate intestinal transit.

plantago ovata cinfa is used:

For the symptomatic treatment of constipation.
In situations where it would be desirable to facilitate the passage of stools, for example, in cases of painful defecation after rectal or anal surgery, anal fissures, and hemorrhoids.
In patients where it is advisable to increase daily fiber intake, for example, as an adjunct in constipation associated with irritable bowel syndrome and as an adjunct to the diet in hypercholesterolemia.

2. What you need to know before taking plantago ovata cinfa

Do not take plantago ovata cinfa:

If you are allergic to Plantago Ovata seeds or any of the other components of this medication, including those listed in section 6 (see section "Warnings and Precautions").
If you have intestinal obstruction, stenosis (narrowing) of the digestive tract, fecal impaction (accumulation of hardened feces), atony (lack of tone and weakness) of the colon, or ileus (paralysis of the colon).
If you have abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting.
If you have difficulty swallowing.
If you have uncontrolled diabetes mellitus.
If you have undiagnosed rectal bleeding.
If you are unable to defecate after using a laxative.
If you have esophageal or cardia (esophagus-stomach junction) diseases.

Warnings and Precautions:

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take plantago ovata cinfa.

Taking plantago ovata cinfa with other medications

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medication.

If you are taking other medications, such as minerals (calcium, iron, lithium, zinc), vitamins (vitamin B12), medications to prevent blood clotting (cumarin derivatives), or medications for heart conditions (digitalis), you should take plantago ovata 1 hour before or after ingestion of your medication, as the fiber may interfere with its absorption.
