Fleet Cleen is a Ready-to-Use bowel cleanser that you administer yourself. It is used for the relief of occasional constipation through drawing water to the colon which helps to produce a bowel movement. This product can also be used when bowel cleaning is required, e.g. before an endoscopy, bowel surgery or X-ray examination.

What is an enema?

Enemas are used to clean the lower half of your bowel by stimulating stool (faeces) evacuation. It is a liquid treatment that is commonly used to relieve severe constipation or to clear the bowel before a procedure such as an endoscopy or surgery. It helps to push waste out of the rectum when you are unable to do this on your own. Cleansing enemas, such as Fleet Cleen are the most common for relieving symptoms of constipation. During a cleansing enema, a water-based solution with a small concentration of stool softener is used to stimulate movement within the large intestine.

What is constipation?

Constipation is a common health condition that can affect people of all ages. It affects your bowel movements and your ability to pass stool (faeces).

Symptoms

Symptoms of constipation include:

Not passing stools regularly
Unable to empty your bowel
Hard and lumpy stools
Unusually large or small stools

The severity of these symptoms varies from person to person. In most cases, constipation is only experienced short-term, but for others, constipation can be a long-term (chronic) condition that can cause significant discomfort and have the potential to affect a person’s quality of life

Causes

Identifying the cause of constipation can often be difficult, but it typically occurs when stools remain in the colon (large intestine) for too long and the colon absorbs too much water from the stools which cause them to become hard and dry. Although the exact cause isn’t always clear, several factors can increase your chances of having constipation, including:

Not including enough fibre in your diet e.g. fruits, vegetables and cereals
A change in your routine or lifestyle, such as a change in eating habits
Having limited privacy when going to the toilet
Ignoring the urge to pass stools (have a poo)
Immobility or lack of exercise
Not drinking enough fluids
Having a fever
Being underweight or overweight
Mental health problems such as anxiety or depression
Psychiatric problems, such as those brought on by trauma

How does Fleet Cleen Enema work?

Fleet Cleen is a type of Saline Laxative. Saline Laxatives draw water into the colon to soften stools to increase bowel action and produce a bowel movement. This can help to move stools that are hard, dry and difficult to pass or to help clear your bowels before a procedure.
