FAQ: How does Dulcolax bisacodyl work?
Bisacodyl works by stimulating the nerve endings in the muscle wall of the large intestine, causing contractions that move bowel contents along and trigger a bowel movement. It also increases water and electrolyte secretion into the bowel, softening the stool. The enteric-coated tablet passes through the stomach and dissolves in the small intestine, with effect typically occurring within 6-12 hours.
FAQ: How long can I take Dulcolax?
Dulcolax is recommended for short-term relief of constipation only - typically no more than 1 week without medical advice. Prolonged use of stimulant laxatives can lead to dependence and reduced natural bowel function. For ongoing constipation, consult our pharmacist about longer-term bowel health strategies including dietary fibre, hydration and appropriate laxative types.
FAQ: Can I take Dulcolax with other medications?
Avoid taking Dulcolax within 1 hour of antacids or dairy products as these can dissolve the enteric coating prematurely. Some medications affect bowel motility or electrolyte balance - always inform our pharmacist of your full medication list. Do not take if you have severe abdominal pain, appendicitis, intestinal obstruction or inflammatory bowel disease without medical advice.
