Dulcobis 10 mg 10 rectal suppositories
Dulcobis suppositories are a laxative drug. Dulcobis works on the lower part of the digestive tract, so it does not affect digestion or absorption of nutrients in the small intestine. Suppositories can be used in the short-term treatment of constipation and in conditions requiring easier defecation (e.g. before diagnostic tests or after surgery) in both adults and children over 10 years of age.

In the case of emergency treatment of constipation in adults and children over 10 years of age, the dosage of Dulcobis is 1 suppository per day.
