Glycerine Monot Adultes may interact with certain medications or substances; awareness of these interactions helps prevent adverse effects.

Avoid

• Concurrent use with other osmotic or stimulant laxatives, which can increase the risk of dehydration and electrolyte disturbances.
• Use with oral or rectal medications that may be absorbed more rapidly due to increased intestinal water content.

Use with caution

• Anticholinergic agents that reduce intestinal motility, potentially diminishing the laxative effect.
• Diuretic therapy, as combined fluid loss may affect electrolyte balance.
• Mineral supplements (e.g., calcium, magnesium) that could alter stool consistency.
