About IRRINIL EYE DROP

IRRINIL EYE DROP is used to treat constipation and to help maintain regular bowel movements. Oral ingestion of methylcellulose will increase the mass of the stool, which will cause the GI tract (specifically large intestines) to become more distended and activate enteric reflexes. Thereby leading to increased GI motility and defecation.

The active constituent of this medication is a chemical compound taken from vegetable cellulose through heating with a caustic solution and treatment with methyl chloride. The end product is a white odourless powdery substance that swells up in the presence of liquid.

This has a wide range of applications and is used in many industries. In cooking, it is often used as a thickener and emulsifier. Sauces, dressings and ice creams are often produced with the help of this. This medication is a bulk-forming laxative that increases the amount of water in your stools to help make them softer and easier to pass.

It is usually taken 1 to 3 times per day. Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than the recommended dose.

Overuse of a laxative may cause damage to the nerves, muscles, or tissues in your intestines. Follow your doctor's instructions about any restrictions on food, beverages, or activity. Other drugs may interact with methylcellulose, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products.
