Laxative
Laxative use promotes bowel movements to alleviate constipation. Types include bulk-forming, stimulant, osmotic, and stool-softening laxatives. Laxative overuse can lead to dependency and decreased bowel function. Consulting a healthcare professional is advisable before commencing any laxative regimen to determine the most suitable and safe option for individual needs.
