How does Dulcolax® work?
The active ingredient in Dulcolax® Tablets is Bisacodyl. In Dulcolax® Perles and Laxoberal Liquid, the active ingredient is Sodium Picosulphate. Both take effect only in the colon itself. Dulcolax® laxatives stimulate the colon’s muscles to contract and, thereby, push the colon’s contents along. They also help ease elimination by accumulating water to soften the colon’s contents.
