Description of Peridale Granules
Uses
A bulk promoting agent (exerting its effect mainly by a hydrophilic action) for the control of stool consistency following surgery, and the management of infected anal sacs, constipation and diarrhoea in dogs. The Sterculia in Peridale takes up as much as 60 times its own volume of water, forming a gelatinous mass. This increases the bulk of the intestinal contents, promotes peristalsis and helps to ensure the easy passage of a soft stool. Sterculia is an otherwise inert substance, not absorbed and so not exerting any systemic effect.
Indications in dogs
- Management of infected anal sacs.
- Control of stool consistency following surgery.
- Control of specific and non-specific diarrhoea.
- Constipation.
