FAQ: How does senna work as a laxative?

Senna contains sennosides that are converted by gut bacteria in the large intestine to active compounds that stimulate bowel muscle contractions and increase water secretion into the bowel. This produces a bowel movement typically 6-12 hours after taking the tablet - making bedtime dosing ideal for morning relief.

FAQ: Can I take Senokot every day?

Senokot is recommended for short-term constipation management - typically no more than 1-2 weeks without medical advice. Prolonged daily use of stimulant laxatives can reduce natural bowel function over time. For ongoing constipation, consult our pharmacist about long-term bowel health strategies including dietary fibre and osmotic laxatives.
