Expert advice for Liquid Parafin Solution
Together with Liquid parafin, fiber rich diet containing whole grain bread and cereals, bran, fruits and green leafy vegetables, is essential to maintain healthy bowel function. Avoid taking a Liquid parafin for more than 1 week, unless prescribed by the doctor, as it leads to dependency on the laxative action to produce a bowel movement.  Take Liquid parafin after 2 hours from other medicines, as it may interfere with the absorption of other medicines. A Liquid parafin should be preferably taken at bedtime because it requires 6 to 8 hours to show impact. Liquid parafin may be taken with milk or fruit juice to improve the flavor.
