Treatment Information
Overview
Constipation usually occurs if you have less than three bowel movements in a week, and the bowel movements are dry, hard, and difficult to expel. In this situation, Cleen Enema is a useful product and gives relief.
Cleen Enema is a saline laxative. It helps to stimulate bowel movement by pulling water into the colon. This gives a soft stool mass and an increased bowel movement. Stimulation of bowel movement should be achieved in 1 to 5 minutes without pain or spasm.
Cleen Enema is also useful before going through a rectal examination since it effectively clears the colon. Plus, it's latex-free.
Cleen Enema is a ready to use disposable squeeze bottle with a soft pre-lubricated Comfortip for easy insertion.
