Bisacodyl

Bisacodyl is a medication used to relieve constipation by stimulating bowel movements. It works by activating nerves in the bowel wall, which increases bowel muscle contractions and helps move stool through the intestines. Usually administered as tablets or suppositories, Bisacodyl typically produces effects within 6 to 12 hours. It is meant for short-term use and should be used as directed, since overuse can lead to dependence or electrolyte imbalances. Consult a healthcare professional if constipation persists or if you have underlying health conditions before use.
