3.5g ispaghula husk b.p in a lemon flavoured base containing aspartame and saccharin sodium sweeteners, potassium bicarbonate, curcumin colour, sodium bicarbonate, polysorbate 80, silica colloidal anhydrous and citric acid!! That is the whole list of ingredients, i hope you can help!!

The aspartame and saccharin sodium sweeteners alone are triggers. Never heard of the ispaghula...but the word "husk" usually indicates it's a rough substance. Also, the citric acid could be a trigger
