Fybogel Hi-Fibre Orange is a bulk-forming laxative that provides gentle relief from constipation and helps restore and maintain regular bowel movements.

Each sachet contains 3.5g of ispaghula husk, a natural source of soluble fibre.

Ispaghula husk absorbs water in the bowel, increasing the bulk and softness of stools so they are easier to pass without unnecessary straining.

Fybogel is suitable for adults and children aged 6 years and over. The dose varies by age, so always follow the patient information leaflet.

Adults and children over 12 should usually take one sachet in the morning and one in the evening, preferably after meals.

Pour one sachet into approximately 150ml of cold water, stir well and drink immediately. Never take the powder without water.

No. Fybogel should not be taken immediately before going to bed. Always take it with sufficient water.

Take Fybogel at least 30 minutes before or after other medicines. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist if you take insulin, thyroid medication or medicines that may cause constipation.

Fybogel Orange may be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice if you are unsure.

Wind or bloating may occur during the first few days as your fibre intake increases. Stop taking Fybogel and seek immediate medical help if you develop difficulty breathing, wheezing, itching or another allergic reaction.
