Beklair High Fiber Sugar Free Orange Flavour Powder belongs to a group of medicines known as laxatives used to treat constipation. Beklair High Fiber Sugar Free Orange Flavour Powder is a combination of two drugs; Ispaghula and Lactitol. Ispaghula is a bulk-forming laxative that works by increasing the amount of water in the stool, and stool volume making the stool softer and easier to pass. It can absorb 14 times more water than its weight. Therefore, drink plenty of water while taking Ispaghula husk. On the other hand, Lactitol is a disaccharide sugar. It works by breaking down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, which increases the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools, and stool volume, thereby makes the stool softer and easier to pass and provides relief from constipation.
