Trophic’s Herbal Laxative is an extremely effective natural formula. It combines potent herbs such as Senna (Cassia augustifolia) and Cascara sagrada (Rhamnus purshiana). Synergistic herbs such as fennel, licorice, gentian and buchu have also been added to the formula for their soothing and gastrointestinal tonic properties.
Adults, take 2 tablets at bedtime, 2-3 times per week, a few hours before or after taking other medications or natural health products. Allow at least 6-12 hours for laxative effect to occur. If results are not observed, the frequency of use may be increased up to once daily. Consult a health care practitioner for use beyond 7 days.
