bisacodyl

Bisacodyl is an organic compound that was first used as a laxative in 1953. This medication is typically prescribed for relief of episodic and chronic constipation and for the management of neurogenic bowel dysfunction, as well as part of bowel preparation before medical examinations, such as for a colonoscopy. Bear in mind that Bisacodyl’s side effects include the following: abdominal cramping, excessive diarrhea, nausea, rectal burning, vomiting and weakness. Now, if your doctor has directed you to use this medication, they may already be aware of any possible drug interactions and may be monitoring you for them. So, you must not start, stop, or change the dosage of Bisacodyl (or any other medicine, for that matter) before checking with your doctor, health care provider or pharmacist first. It is also worth noting that Bisacodyl tablets are not generally recommended if you are pregnant, especially in the first 3 months and while you are breastfeeding.
