Senokot 7.5mg Tablets 12 Years Plus 60 (P)

The senna plant has been used as a laxative for many years, and has proven to be safe. The bowel works by pushing stools down using a wave-like motion known as peristalsis. The senna in Senokot gently stimulates the bowel, thus pushing stools down faster. This is a reliable way of relieving constipation.
