How Liquid Paraffin + Magnesium Hydroxide (milk Of Magnesia) + Sodium Picosulphate works

  • Liquid Paraffin + Magnesium Hydroxide (Milk Of Magnesia) + Sodium Picosulphate works by softening the stool and increasing its water content, which helps to promote bowel movements and relieve constipation.
  • Liquid paraffin works by coating the intestine and stool, which helps to lubricate the stool and make it easier to pass through the digestive tract. This lubrication helps to reduce the discomfort associated with passing hard or dry stool.
  • Milk of magnesia is a type of magnesium salt that draws water into the intestine, which helps soften the stool and increase its bulk. This increased water content in the stool also helps stimulate the digestive tract muscles, promoting bowel movements.
  • Sodium picosulfate helps stimulate peristaltic movement (contraction and relaxation of the digestive tract muscles), promoting bowel movements. It works by increasing the contractions of the muscles in the intestine, which helps to move stool through the digestive tract and promote regular bowel movements.
  • The complete action of these three components is responsible for the treatment of constipation.
