How to Use
Important: Always follow the product label or your healthcare professional’s instructions.
Oral (laxative) use: Use only as directed on the pack or by your clinician. Liquid paraffin is used as a lubricant laxative to soften stools and ease bowel movements. Consult a pharmacist or doctor for appropriate dosing for adults and children.
Topical (skin) use: Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin and gently rub in. Use as needed to relieve dryness, rough patches or to seal in moisture after bathing. Avoid contact with eyes.
Who It’s For
Alpha Liquid Paraffin is intended for adults and children when recommended by a healthcare professional. It is useful for people seeking temporary constipation relief or for those needing a reliable emollient for very dry skin. Not recommended for infants or for persons with swallowing difficulties unless under medical supervision.
