Product overview
About Senokot Max Strength
Senokot's strongest tablet: senna fruit standardised to 15mg of sennosides — double the standard Senokot — a clinically proven medicine for the short-term relief of occasional constipation. One tablet at night, relief by morning. For adults and children over 12. The 48-tablet pack is limited to one per order.
Who the 48 pack suits
Because senna is a short-term medicine, a big pack isn't for daily use — it's for households where more than one person occasionally needs it, or for keeping a supply in the cupboard across the year. One per order keeps supply in line with the one-week rule.
How to take
Adults, the elderly and children over 12: one tablet at night, swallowed with water. It typically works in 8–12 hours. Usually two or three doses across a week are enough — don't use it for more than a week without advice.
Good to know
Senna does not help with weight loss and overuse can be harmful — the pack says both in plain words. Constipation that keeps returning is a fibre, fluids and medicines-review conversation; persistent change in bowel habit, pain or bleeding needs a GP. The questionnaire and pharmacist check are there to make sure a stimulant laxative is the right answer.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly does Senokot Max Strength work?
Taken at night, it usually works in 8–12 hours — so by the next morning.
Can I take it every day?
No — it's for short-term, occasional use, no more than a week without advice. Regular use can make the bowel depend on it; ask our pharmacist about gentler daily options.
24 or 48 tablets?
48 suits a household cupboard; 24 is the sensible single-user pack. Neither is for daily use — senna is a one-week-maximum medicine.
