The article tells about intermediate results of a comparative study of the efficacy and tolerability of Lavacol® in the treatment of chronic constipation. The treatment group consisted of patients receiving Lavacol®, and the control group included patients after treatment with Forlax. Comparison of findings obtained before treatment and within the same periods from the beginning of treatment, showed no significant difference between the groups. The results demonstrated high efficacy and safety of Lavacol® similar to that of Forlax for the symptomatic treatment of constipation in patients with functional constipation and constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (in accordance with Rome III criteria).
