Babimos Bar Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

Glycerin is a hyperosmotic laxative, given rectally, which usually produces a bowel movement within 15 minutes to 1 hour. Hyperosmotic laxatives encourage bowel movements by drawing water into the bowel from surrounding tissues. This produces a softer stool mass and increased bowel action. These products are used for fast, predictable relief of occasional constipation.

Glycerin is commonly classified as an osmotic laxative but may act additionally or alternatively through its local irritant effects; it may also have lubricating and fecal softening actions. Glycerin suppositories usually work within 15 to 30 minutes.

How Babimos Bar works

When administered rectally, glycerin exerts a hygroscopic and/or local irritant action, drawing water from the tissues into the feces and reflexively stimulating evacuation. Glycerin decreases intraocular pressure by creating an osmotic gradient between the blood and intraocular fluid, causing fluid to move out of the aqueous and vitreous humors into the bloodstream.

Fatty acids act as a substrate in energy production through beta-oxidation as well as important components of cell membrane structures and prescursors for bioactive molecules like prostaglandins .

Dosage

Babimos Bar dosage

Children under 2 years: Consult a physician.

Children (2 to 6 years): only 1 Glycerin 1.15 suppository per 24 hours or as directed by a physician.

Adults and Children (From 6 years): only 1 Glycerin 2.30 suppository per 24 hours or as directed by a physician

Insert suppository well up into rectum. Suppository need to melt completely to produce laxative action.

Side Effects

Glycerin when used rectally may cause rectal discomfort or a burning sensation

Toxicity

Glycerol has very low toxicity when ingested ; Rat LD50 (oral)-12600mg/kg Mice LD50 (oral )-4090mg/kg Human TDLo (oral) - 1428mg/kg

Fat overload sydrome is the primary form of toxicity characterized by a sudden deterioration in the patient's condition accompanied by fever, anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, coagulation disorders, hyperlipidemia, liver fatty infiltration, deteriorating liver function, and central nervous system manifestations such as coma . The precise cause of this is unclear. While it is most likely to occur during overdosage of lipids some occurences have been reported when lipids are administered appropriately. Intraperitoneal LD50 in mice of >50g/kg and intravenous LD50 in rats of 1320mg/kg .

Volume of Distribution

Glycerin is distributed throughout the blood. Although glycerin generally does not appear in ocular fluids, it may enter the orbital sac when the eye is inflamed, with a consequent decrease in osmotic effect.

Elimination Route

Well absorbed orally, poorly absorbed rectally. Studies in humans and animals indicate glycerol is rapidly absorbed in the intestine and the stomach

Elimination Route

Approx 7-14% of dose is excreted unchanged in the urine within 2.5 hr.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use
