Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Do not use Julax-Sp 10Mg Supp 5'S for more than a week as it might cause dependency on Julax-Sp 10Mg Supp 5'S for bowel movement. Consult your doctor before using Julax-Sp 10Mg Supp 5'S if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
