What is Resolor (Prucalopride) prescribed for?
Being constipated means your bowel movements are tough or they happen less often than normal. It is something everyone has gone through in their lifetime. And while it’s not a serious condition, you will feel much better with your body being back on track. Some of the constipation symptoms are few bowel movements, troubles having a bowel movement (straining to go), hard or small stools, a sense that everything didn’t come out, and belly bloating.
This medication is used to treat chronic constipation, and is often used when other medications, such as laxative, have not provided any relief. Resolor works to improve how well your stomach and intestines move food through the bowels during digestion.
The recommended dose of Resolor is 2 mg taken once a day. Patients aged over 65 years should start with a 1 mg dose once a day, and this can be increased to 2 mg once a day if needed.
