Spagulax: Your Natural Solution for Transit

Note:

  • Constipation
  • Palliative care

There are several types of constipation:

  • Acute constipation : Acute constipation is traditionally defined by a slowing down of intestinal transit which will trigger a drop in the frequency of stool emission which will appear dehydrated. The affected person will experience difficulty in having a bowel movement, or even in some cases, not having a bowel movement at all.
  • Occasional constipation : When constipation, that is to say the delay in bowel movement lasts only a few weeks (up to less than 3 stools per week), we speak of temporary constipation (or occasional constipation).
  • Severe constipation : The intestinal transit then resumes a normal frequency. Severe constipation is constipation with a frequency of less than one bowel movement per week and resistant to medical treatment.
  • Chronic constipation : Severe constipation can be acute, that is to say occurring suddenly and for a short period of time, or chronic, that is to say for a period of several months or years.
