Winlaxit Disposable Enema

Winlaxit Disposable Enema is an over-the-counter rectal preparation supplied as a pack of 2 single-use 20ml units, each containing sodium phosphate as the active ingredient in a glycerin-based liquid carrier. It is designed as a single-use, pre-filled applicator for rectal administration.

As an OTC product, it is registered for sale in Malaysia without a doctor’s prescription. It belongs to the saline laxative enema category, distinct from oral laxatives, and is intended for occasional rather than regular use.

Wash your hands thoroughly with soap before and after use. Remove the protective cap from the nozzle. You may use a disposable glove and, if needed, lubricate the tip with a small amount of the enema liquid. Gently insert the nozzle into the rectum, approximately 3cm, and squeeze the unit gently until the liquid is emptied. Try to retain the liquid for a few minutes before passing a bowel movement.

Adults and children aged 12 years and above: 1 unit (20ml) inserted rectally as a single dose, repeated with the second unit only if directed by a healthcare professional. Not intended for use more than once in 24 hours. Use in children under 12 years should only be under medical guidance.

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the units in their original packaging until ready to use, and keep out of reach and sight of children.

• Known hypersensitivity to sodium phosphate, glycerin, or any other ingredient in the formulation.
• Suspected bowel obstruction, undiagnosed abdominal pain, or active rectal bleeding.
• Severe kidney impairment, unless specifically directed by a doctor, due to the phosphate content.

• Frequent use together with other laxatives or bowel-cleansing products may increase the risk of electrolyte disturbances; avoid combining multiple laxative products without medical advice.
• People taking diuretics or medicines that affect kidney function should check with a doctor before repeated use, as phosphate-based enemas can affect electrolyte balance.
• Not applicable for food interactions, as this is a rectally administered product.

• Wash hands thoroughly before and after use.
• Use one unit at a time and discard after single use.
• Insert gently to avoid causing rectal irritation.
• Stay near a toilet after use, as the urge to pass stool can come on quickly.
• Do not use more than once in 24 hours without medical advice.
• Keep the second unit in its original packaging until it is actually needed.

Precautions: Use with caution in the elderly, in pregnancy, and in people with kidney problems or heart conditions, who should check with a doctor first. This product is intended for occasional use only; frequent reliance on enemas for bowel movements should be discussed with a healthcare professional.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Seek medical advice if constipation persists for more than a few days despite use, if you experience severe abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, or if you need to use laxative products frequently.
