pharmachologic effect

MICROLAXВ® is a combined drug with a laxative effect.

The effect occurs in 5-15 minutes.

The preparation contains sodium citrate (a peptizing agent that displaces bound water contained in feces), sodium lauryl sulfoacetate (dilutes the contents of the intestine) and sorbitol (enhances the laxative effect by stimulating the flow of water into the intestine).

An increase in the amount of water due to peptization and liquefaction promotes softening of feces and facilitates bowel movement.
