Khaolaor Laboratory Sidolax, Senna Alexandrina extract Overview

Senna Alexandrina is holly Cassia and Egyptian Senna. In medicine, the plant has been used since the period of ancient Egypt. The most common use is as a laxative for intermittent and atonic constipation. However, Senna Alexandrina has other indications. Senna has long been used as an expectorant to remove sputum from the bronchopulmonary system. The modern pharmacological industry is not interested in natural drugs, this also applies to Senna Alexandrina, so at one time custom-made false studies were made and information was published in the media that the use of Senna Alexandrina based drugs is addictive and even causes cancer. False information was spread in custom articles that the consumption of an anthranoid-containing laxative leads to oncology of the colon and rectum. This is obviously not true and independent studies by a group of Japanese scientists: Dr. Hayashi, Dr. Tahaka, Dr. Minatin and Dr. Yoshizawa were published in the Chem Pharm Bull in Tokyo in 1980. The article is called “Analytical studies of active ingredients in crude preparations. Identification of sennosides in Senna and other preparations by highly effective liquid chromatography” - if you are interested you can get acquainted with the article. The essence of the study can be reduced to one analytical conclusion: taking an extract of Senna Alexandrina at the rate of 25 mg per 1 kg of body weight daily for two years does not cause any pathological changes in the life of the object of study. The aforementioned toxicological studies show that the use of Senna Alexandrina is not dangerous to human health and does not cause side effects if the dosage and duration of the course of treatment are observed. For a person weighing 70 kg, the maximum daily intake is 1750 mg, which is 7 tablets of 250 mg.

Contraindications \ Precautions: The herbal drug has no contraindications when used in the recommended dosages. The herbal drug can be taken during pregnancy, since scientific studies have shown that the active substances of Senna Alexandrina do not enter the fetus, as well as with the mother's milk.

As a therapeutic herbal drug, the dosage is from 2 to 6 tablets once every day. The maximum dose can be determined at the rate of 1 tablet per 10 kg of body weight. Continuous use of the herbal drug should be no more than 3 months. When using the herbal drug Sidolax for the treatment of atonic, that is, chronic constipation, it is necessary to change the nutrition plan. You should remove meat and legumes, as well as foods containing starch, especially potatoes. Drink at least 1 liter of pure water per day. In addition, it is necessary to consult with a specialist to determine the correct dosage and possible combinations with other ayurvedic medicines, based on concomitant diseases, if any. It is worth noting that Sidolax is usually prescribed in combination with other drugs that have additional therapeutic effects since Senna Alexandria does not have a therapeutic effect on the disease which causes constipation. The main task is to eliminate the causes of constipation, and not to remove the symptoms of the disease.
