Dulcolax Pico Liquid is an oral solution that provides a short term relief of constipation.
Dulcolax PicoLiquid is a fruit flavored liquid with a dual action to bring gentle overnight relief from constipation. By stimulating both the colon and the rectum it may also help bowel to return to normal regular function.
Stimulant laxatives should only be used if other laxatives (bulk-forming and osmotic) are ineffective. Children younger than 12 years should not use stimulant laxatives without advice from a prescriber and clinical guidance should be followed.
