Description

Pedia-Lax is the only laxative brand designed specifically for kids, providing safe, gentle and effective relief of constipation within minutes to hours and not days. Poop happens, but when it doesn't, there's Pedia-Lax.

Directions

Children 5 to 11 years: 1 bottle or as directed by doctor. Children 2 to under 5 years: 1/2 bottle. 1/2 bottle preparation: Unscrew cap and remove 2 tablespoons of liquid with a measuring spoon. Replace cap and follow DIRECTIONS on back of carton. Children under 2 years. DO NOT USE. Left-side position: Place child on left side with knees bent and arms resting comfortably. Knee-chest position: Have child kneel, then lower head and chest forward until left side of face is resting on surface with left arm folded comfortably. REMOVE ORANGE PROTECTIVE SHIELD FROM ENEMA COMFORTIP BEFORE INSERTING. With steady pressure, gently insert enema tip into rectum with a slight side-to-side movement, with tip pointing toward navel. Insertion may be easier if child receiving enema bears down as if having a bowel movement. This helps relax the muscles around the anus. Do not force the enema tip into rectum as this can cause injury. Squeeze bottle until nearly all liquid is gone. It is not necessary to empty the bottle completely as it contains more liquid than needed. Remove Comfortip from rectum and keep child in position until urge to evacuate is strong (usually 2 to 5 minutes).
