Description
How Senna Tablets Work:
Senna tablets function by stimulating the muscles in the intestines, facilitating the movement of stool through the bowel. This action helps produce a bowel movement, typically within 6 to 12 hours after ingestion.
Usage Guidelines:
For adults experiencing occasional constipation, the usual dose is two to four tablets taken once a day. It is recommended to take senna tablets in the evening, so they work overnight. However, they should only be used for short periods—a few days at most—as prolonged use can lead to dependency, where the bowel starts to rely on the laxative to function.
Safety Information:
While senna tablets are generally safe for short-term use, they may cause some side effects such as stomach cramps or diarrhea. These effects are usually mild and transient. It’s important to discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider if adverse reactions occur or if constipation persists after three days of use.
