Ingredients
Each Microlax Enema tube contains the following active ingredients: sodium citrate 450 mg, and sodium alkylsulphoacetate 45mg. Also contains sorbitol solution, glycerol, sorbic acid, and purified water.
For further information please refer to pack insert.
Usage and Instructions
- Twist off the cap and squeeze a drop of the solution out of the tube – that will make it even easier to insert the tip of the tube.
- Sit down on the loo in your usual position, or just squat down a little and insert the neck of the tube completely into your rectum. The small rounded tip is thinner than a suppository and can be inserted safely and painlessly when used as directed.
- Gently squeeze out the entire contents (only 5ml) of the tube into the rectum.
- Keeping the tube squeezed tightly, withdraw the tip from the rectum. Tighten your buttox muscles to prevent the solution from running out. Important: To allow stools to soften, it is important not to have a bowel movement immediately; you should wait at least 5 minutes.
- There will be a gentle bowel movement within 30 minutes after use. It will likely be a normal bowel movement that can be controlled.
- After use, dispose of the micro-enema.

You should not use Micralax if:
- You are allergic to sodium citrate or sodium alkylsulphoacetate
- You are allergic to any of the other ingredients in Micralax
- You have an inflammatory bowel disease.
- You should speak to your doctor or midwife before using Micralax if you are pregnant or breastfeeding
