What is Fybogel Mebeverine?

Fybogel Mebeverine sachets are used to relieve constipation, associated with IBS. It is one of the easiest and convenient ways to increase fibre in your diet. Fibre helps aid the digestive system to work more efficiently and gently relieves constipation in a natural way.

How does it work?

Fybogel Mebeverine works alongside the body’s natural digestive processes. It provides fibre; more importantly insoluble fibre which does not get absorbed along our gastrointestinal tract this produces an osmotic effect which causes water to be absorbed into the stools hence making them softer and easier to pass. 

Fybogel Mebeverine Sachets are both sugar-free and gluten-free.


Constipation is caused by a number of different conditions such as

  • Anxiety
  • A Lack of Exercise or poor fitness
  • Being over or underweight
  • Lifestyle changes such as different food or drink
  • Depression
  • Lack of fibre in food & drink

Constipation can happen to anybody regardless of age or health, it normally only occurs for short periods of time but on occasions can be a long term symptom which can be difficult to manage.

Practical Tips

  • Ensure you are drinking plenty of water (8 glasses of fluid a day which approximately 2 litres).
  • Avoid drinking too many caffeinated drinks as this can make constipation worse.
  • Try to eat food which is rich in fibre (for example, fruit, vegetables, wholegrain cereals.)
  • Ensure you take regular exercise (for example, walking, gardening or swimming) as lack of activity can cause constipation.

Effectiveness

Fybogel is a widely used and effective constipation relief medication however every patient can respond differently to medication. If you find Fybogel is not effective for you, you may want to try Laxido or an alternative.
