What is Cosmocol Sachets - Orange Flavour?

CosmoCol Orange Flavour is a laxative used for the treatment of long-term 
(chronic) constipation and faecal impaction (persistent constipation, where 
a large volume of stools cause a blockage of the rectum and /or colon). Macrogol 3350 makes 
your faeces softer and easier to pass, giving you relief from constipation. 
The electrolytes (salts) help to maintain your body’s normal levels of sodium, 
potassium and water while you are being treated for constipation.

How to use Cosmocol Sachets - Orange Flavour

This course of treatment for constipation should not normally last longer than 
2 weeks. If you need to take CosmoCol Orange Flavour for longer, please see 
your doctor. If your constipation is caused by an illness such as Parkinson’s 
disease or multiple sclerosis (MS), or if you take medicines that cause 
constipation your doctor may recommend that you take CosmoCol Orange 
Flavour for longer than 2 weeks. If you need to take CosmoCol Orange Flavour 
for longer, please see your doctor. Usually for long-term treatment the dose 
can be lowered to either 1 or 2 sachets a day.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Cosmocol Sachets - Orange Flavour before you start.

How long does Cosmocol take to work?

It usually works within 1 to 3 days. It works gently by holding water in the bowel, so it is not an instant laxative.

How do I take the sachets?

Dissolve the contents of a sachet in about 125ml of water, stir well and drink. Follow the dose on the pack or as advised by your prescriber.

Can I use Cosmocol while taking weight loss injections?

Constipation is a common side effect of GLP-1 treatments. A macrogol laxative such as Cosmocol is often suitable, but let our clinical team know so they can advise you.

When should I see a doctor?

Seek advice if constipation lasts more than two weeks, or you have blood in your stools, unexplained weight loss or severe stomach pain.
