1. Qué es VEROLAX y para qué se utiliza

El glicerol, principio activo de este medicamento es un laxante, que se administra por vía rectal. El efecto laxante se consigue por la capacidad del glicerol de ablandar las heces que, junto a una ligera acción irritante local, consigue estimular los movimientos del intestino.

Está indicado para el alivio local sintomático del estreñimiento transitorio y ocasional para niños de entre 2 y 12 años.
