Metamucil Clear & Natural is used to relieve occasional constipation, promote regularity, and support overall digestive health. It may also be used as part of a heart-healthy diet to help support healthy cholesterol levels and assist in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.

This medication contains psyllium, a soluble fiber that absorbs water in the intestines to form a gel-like substance. This gel helps soften stool and adds bulk, which promotes bowel movements and helps waste pass more easily through the digestive tract.

Take with plenty of water (at least 8 ounces) to prevent choking. Use daily with a balanced diet for best results. Consult a healthcare provider before use if you have any digestive conditions, are taking other medications, or experience sudden changes in bowel habits. Not intended for weight loss.
