Senna strips

Overnight Relief from Occasional Constipation

Constipation can leave you feeling heavy, bloated and uncomfortable. 7Mounts Senna for Gut Health is a slim, easy-to-take strip made for the short-term relief of occasional constipation. Each strip contains calcium sennosides 12.5 mg, equivalent to 7.5 mg senna, a well-known ingredient used in over-the-counter laxatives. Take one strip after a meal at bedtime, as directed on the pack.

How Senna strips Work

Senna is a stimulant laxative. Its active compounds, called sennosides, act on the lining of the bowel to stimulate bowel movements and help you pass stool. Senna usually takes about 6 to 12 hours to work, which is why it is taken at bedtime and a bowel movement is typically expected the next morning.

Why a Strip?

Senna strips gives you a clear, single dose with nothing to measure. It is light and slim, so it is easy to keep in a bag, drawer or travel kit. That is handy when constipation strikes because of a change in routine, such as travel, different food or irregular meals.

Who Is Senna strips For?

Adults who sometimes find it hard to pass stool, for example after travelling, changing their diet or being less active than usual. It is meant for short-term, occasional use and is not a long-term solution. Please ask a doctor before giving it to a child.

How to Use

1. Take 1 strip after a meal at bedtime.
2. Do not take more than the stated dose. Taking more will not make it work better and can cause side effects.
3. Drink enough water through the day.
4. Stop once your bowel movements are back to normal.
5. If constipation continues after about a week, or gets worse, speak to a doctor.

Always read the label first and use only as directed.

Simple Habits That Help Your Digestion

A laxative works best alongside everyday habits that support regular bowel movements:

• Eat more fibre: fruit, vegetables, whole grains, pulses and millets
• Drink plenty of water
• Stay active with a daily walk or exercise
• Keep a regular toilet routine and do not ignore the urge to go
• Eat meals at regular times

Important Safety Information

Senna is a medicine, so please read the label and use it carefully.

• Short-term use only. Do not use for more than about 1 week without a doctor’s advice. Long-term use can make the bowel dependent on laxatives and can cause an imbalance of body salts.
• Not for weight loss. Laxatives do not help with weight loss. They can cause diarrhoea, cramps and dehydration.
• Do not use if you have stomach pain, nausea or vomiting, a blocked bowel, rectal bleeding, or a sudden change in bowel habits that has lasted more than 2 weeks, unless a doctor advises it.
• Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a medical condition, or take other medicines (for example heart medicines or diuretics).
• Possible side effects include stomach cramps and loose stools. Stop using it and speak to a doctor if these are severe.
• Keep out of the reach of children.
