* Concern for obstipation or fecal impaction.
* Severe acute inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) defined as subjects with a Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (PUCAI) score \>65 or a Short Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (short PCDAI) score \>40, at the time of screening, or development of severe IBD between (Visit 1) and investigational medicinal product (IMP) dispensation (Visit 2).
* Any prior colorectal surgery, excluding appendectomy and polyp removal.
* History of colon disease (e.g., Hirschsprung disease, volvulus, idiopathic pseudo-obstruction, or hypomotility syndrome).
* History of or ongoing intestinal ulceration, toxic megacolon or other toxic colitis.
* History of upper gastrointestinal disorder (e.g., active ulcer, pyloric stenosis or other cause of gastric retention, gastroparesis, or ileus).

* Chronic or persistent, severe nausea or vomiting during the screening period.
* Moderate to severe dehydration during the screening period.

* Participation in an interventional investigational trial requiring administration of an investigational drug within 30 days prior to receiving trial medication (or within 60 days for investigational drugs with an elimination half-life \>15 days).
* Any clinically relevant abnormal findings in medical history, physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), clinical chemistry, hematology, coagulation, or urinalysis at screening which in the opinion of the investigator(s), might put the participant at risk because of his/her participation in the trial.
* Hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of the trial medications.
