Laxocodyl Adult 10Supp

Laxocodyl is a medication used to treat acute and chronic constipation. It belongs to the class of stimulant laxatives, working to stimulate bowel movements to facilitate the process of defecation. It is considered an effective option for adults who have difficulty in passing stools.

Laxocodyl (BISACODYL) works by stimulating the nerves in the walls of the intestines, leading to increased bowel movement and increased fluid secretion in the intestines. This helps to soften the stool and make it easier to pass. It is commonly used in cases of constipation, as well as before certain medical procedures such as colonoscopy. This medication is effective and fast-acting, with effects typically seen within 6 to 12 hours after use.
