Colpermin composition

There are some other substances known as “excipients”. These make up other necessary parts of the capsule, for example:
- The capsule coating contains a hard-gelatine (bovine)
- Inside the capsules are substances that form the gel which releases the peppermint oil
Colpermin also contains arachis oil (peanut oil), beeswax and colloidal silica. Colpermin does not contain wheat, gluten or lactose.
