Overview

Bisoxatin is a stimulant laxative used primarily for the treatment of constipation and for preparation of the colon prior to surgical procedures. It acts by increasing peristalsis (the wave-like muscle contractions that move food through the digestive tract) and inhibiting the absorption of water and ions in the intestine, resulting in increased water content in feces and enhanced bowel movement. The precise molecular mechanism underlying its stimulant effect is not fully understood. Bisoxatin is classified as a diarylmethane derivative and is administered orally. It has been marketed under brand names such as Wylaxine and Laxonalin, particularly in Belgium[1][3][4][5][6].
