Product overview
Description
Composition
This catalog's generic_name field lists "Tonalax" - this is a Bangladesh pharmacy source's abbreviated naming convention (using the top few ingredients), not the full composition. Per that source, the complete formula per tablet is actually 9 ingredients: Scammony (Convolvulusscammonia) 71.42mg, Lavender (Lavandula stoechas) 71.42mg, Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) 71.42mg,Rhubarb (Rheum emodi) 71.42mg, Mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus) 71.42mg, Emblic Myrobalan (Phyllanthusemblica) 28.57mg, Chebulic Myrobalan (Terminalia chebula) 28.57mg, Belleric Myrobalan (Terminaliabellerica) 28.57mg, and Turpeth (Ipomoea turpethum) 28.57mg. Scammony is historically known in traditional medicine as a potent, resin-based purgative, and Rhubarbis itself a stimulant (anthraquinone-type) laxative - the combination of these two ingredients makesthis a genuinely potent multi-mechanism laxative formula, not a mild bulk-forming one, despite that source's "gentle laxative" marketing description. A same-genericsibling brand sold in Bangladesh under this Qurs Mulayin formula is called "Senokot" (by TotalNatural Company) - this Bangladesh product is unrelated to, and should not be confused with, theinternationally known senna-based "Senokot" brand sold in other markets, despite the identical name.
Uses & Indications
Tonalax is indicated for the relief of constipation. Marketing materials also describe generaldigestive health support, reduced gas/cramping, and relief of colic-type symptoms; these broaderclaims are manufacturer marketing language rather than independently substantiated indications.
Dosage & Administration
1 to 2 tablets with lukewarm water, once daily, or as prescribed. Given the potent, multi-mechanismpurgative ingredients in this formula, do not exceed the labeled dose, and avoid regular long-term usewithout physician guidance, since overreliance on stimulant-type laxatives can affect normal bowelfunction over time.
Precautions & Side Effects
The manufacturer's Bangladesh labeling states no significant side effects at therapeutic dosage andlists no formal contraindications beyond keeping the product out of reach of children. This is notably thin safety documentation for a formula containing scammony andrhubarb, both traditionally recognized as potent purgatives that can cause griping (abdominal cramping),dehydration, and electrolyte disturbance if the dose is exceeded; the low per-tablet quantities suggestthe manufacturer has formulated this for safety at the labeled dose, but no source directly confirmsor explains this safety margin. As a general precaution, do not exceed the recommended dose, ensureadequate fluid intake, and consult a physician if you experience excessive cramping, diarrhea, orsigns of dehydration.
Storage & Safety
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Do not usebeyond the expiry date printed on the package.
