	Psyllium is an unusually effective and safe laxative high in both fiber and mucilage. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Psyllium both the seed and husk of Plantago ovata for Chronic constipation; disorders whereby easy bowel movements with a loose stool are desirable e.g. in patients with anal fissures hemorrhoids following anal/rectal surgery; during pregnancy; as a secondary medication in the treatment of various kinds of diarrhea and in the treatment of irritable bowel. Contraindications: Stenosis of the gastrointestinal tract. Obstruction or threatening obstruction of the bowel (ileus). Poorly controllable diabetes mellitus. Side Effects: In rare cases allergic reactions may occur. Interactions with Other Drugs: The intestinal absorption of other medication taken simultaneously may be delayed. Warning: There may need to be a reduction in the insulin dosage in diabetics who are insulin-dependent. Daily dose: 4 - 20 g of the drug prepared accordingly. Mode of Administration: The whole drug as well as other galenical preparations to be taken orally. Note: Sufficient fluids must be taken with the drug e.g. 150 ml water to 5 g drug. The dose should be taken a half hour to one hour after taking other medication. Actions: Diarrhea: An increase of the passage time of the bowel content through bonding of water. Constipation: A decrease of the passage time of the bowel content through increase of the volume of the stool. A lowering of the serum-cholesterol level. A reduction of the postprandial blood sugar increase. The well-known commercial laxative Metamucil is a preparation of a hydrophilic mucilloid from the husk of psyllium seed.
