Movicol is a trusted and clinically approved laxative brand used for the effective treatment of constipation and faecal impaction. Its active ingredient, macrogol 3350 (also known as polyethylene glycol), works by drawing water into the bowel to soften stool and promote natural bowel movement. Movicol is recommended by healthcare professionals and widely used in both hospital and home settings across the UK.

Originally developed by Norgine, a European pharmaceutical company founded in the early 1900s, Movicol is now part of a global portfolio of bowel management solutions with a strong reputation for clinical reliability and safety.

The Benefits of Movicol

Movicol is a gentle yet effective solution for those dealing with irregular bowel habits, especially constipation. Its key benefits include:

• Softens stool naturally – By increasing water content in the colon, Movicol allows easier, more comfortable bowel movements

• Non-stimulant formula – Unlike stimulant laxatives, it works without causing intestinal spasms or urgency

• Suitable for long-term use – Under medical supervision, Movicol can be used safely for chronic constipation

• Can be used by all ages – Specific formulations are available for adults, children, and older adults, with dosage tailored to age and condition

• Well-tolerated and easy to take – Comes in easy-to-mix sachets that dissolve in water with a neutral taste

These features make Movicol a leading option for managing constipation without causing cramping or dependency. It is often recommended as part of a broader gut health strategy and can be taken alongside probiotics to support overall digestive balance and long-term bowel health.
