Normacol Lavement Enfants (Disodium Phosphate Dodecahydrate, Sodium Dihydrogen Phosphate Dihydrate)

Sodium phosphate creates an osmotic gradient that draws water into the colon. The added fluid softens the fecal mass, increases intraluminal volume, and stimulates peristalsis, leading to a rapid and gentle bowel movement.

The appropriate dose is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the child’s age, weight, and clinical need. The product is supplied as a pre‑measured rectal enema solution to be administered according to the prescriber’s instructions.

Safety in pregnancy and lactation has not been established. Use only if the potential benefit justifies any possible risk to the mother or infant, and always under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider.

Unlike stimulant laxatives that act on intestinal nerves, sodium phosphate enemas work by an osmotic mechanism, providing rapid bowel evacuation with minimal systemic stimulation. They are often preferred when a quick, controlled cleanse is needed, but electrolyte monitoring may be required.

Store at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging. Protect the container from moisture, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures. Keep out of reach of children.

The solution is introduced rectally using the supplied applicator. The prescriber specifies the volume and the child’s positioning. After administration, the child should remain lying down for several minutes to allow the enema to act before attempting to evacuate.

Serious risks include severe electrolyte disturbances such as hyperphosphatemia or marked hypocalcemia, dehydration, and allergic reactions that may present as rash or anaphylaxis. Any signs of severe abdominal pain, vomiting, or systemic symptoms should prompt immediate medical evaluation.

The enema is contraindicated in children with known hypersensitivity to phosphate enemas, severe renal impairment, uncontrolled electrolyte disorders, or when bowel preparation is not clinically indicated. A qualified clinician must assess each patient before use.
