Cautions with other medicines
Some medicines, such as epilepsy medicines like levetiracetam or phenytoin, may not work as well if you take macrogol at the same time.
Check with your pharmacist or doctor if you're taking epilepsy medicines.
Taking macrogol with other laxatives
For most people, 1 laxative will be enough to relieve constipation.
Occasionally, you may need to take 2 different types of laxatives at the same time to get your bowels moving again.
Only take 2 laxatives together if a doctor recommends it as there's more risk of getting side effects.
Mixing macrogol with herbal remedies and supplements
There's not enough information to say that complementary medicines, herbal remedies and supplements are safe to take with macrogol. They're not tested in the same way as pharmacy and prescription medicines. They're generally not tested for the effect they have on other medicines.
Important: Medicine safety
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you're taking any other medicines, including herbal remedies, vitamins or supplements.
