The active substance in Resolor, Prucalopride, is a ‘5-HT4 receptor agonist’. This means that it works like a substance in the body called 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, also known as serotonin) and attaches to receptors for 5-HT in the gut called ‘5-HT4 receptors.
When 5-HT binds to these receptors, it normally stimulates movement in the gut. In the same way, when Prucalopride attaches to and stimulates these receptors, it increases this movement and allows the bowels to empty faster.

Constipation is generally described as having fewer than three bowel movements a week.
Though occasional constipation is very common, some people experience chronic constipation that can interfere with their ability to go about their daily tasks. Chronic constipation may also cause people to strain excessively to have a bowel movement

The recommended dose of Resolor is 2 mg taken once a day. Patients aged over 65 years should start with a 1 mg dose once a day, and this can be increased to 2 mg once a day if needed
