Possibilities of sodium picosulfate application in constipation pharmacotherapy in functional intestinal disorders

Abstract

Constipation, which is currently one of the global problems of mankind, requires modern approaches to its pharmacological correction. Constipation that occurs in the absence of organic digestive pathology is in most cases considered a symptom of functional constipation or irritable bowel syndrome, the diagnosis of which is based on the compliance of the patient’s complaints and anamnestic data with the Rome IV criteria for the diagnosis of these functional disorders. Regulax Picosulphate, an intravenous droplet, is a modern laxative drug with a possibility of precise and easy dosing that does not have a local irritant effect on the gastric and duodenal mucous membranes; the efficacy and safety of this drug has been proven in controlled clinical trials.
