The extra water softens the stools, making it easier to have bowel movements. Common side effects of docusate include cramping, stomach pain, and diarrhea. The FDA has approved OTC docusate as an initial treatment of occasional constipation, so healthcare professionals commonly prescribe or recommend docusate.

The average cash price for 60, 100 mg capsules of generic docusate is about $9. The recommended dose is one tablet per day, so 60 capsules are enough to last two months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For most people, taking docusate should not be a long-term daily habit. Docusate package instructions generally advise taking the laxative no longer than a week. After that, it is recommended to see a doctor or other healthcare provider. If docusate is used long-term, expect to pay about $300 per year if it is taken every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alternative stool softeners include generic MiraLAX (polyethylene glycol), <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/milk-of-magnesia\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">milk of magnesia<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/magnesium-hydroxide\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">magnesium hydroxide<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/lactulose\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lactulose<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A 238-gram package of MiraLAX powder costs about $17. This is enough powder for 14 doses, so a month\u2019s worth of MiraLAX will cost about $34. Eight dollars is enough to purchase a 473 mL bottle of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/phillips-milk-of-magnesia\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phillips Milk of Magnesia<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Depending on the dosage (30 mL or 60 mL per day), the bottle contains eight to 16 daily doses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People can also consider using other types of laxatives, including lubricant laxatives such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/mineral-oil\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mineral oil<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, stimulant laxatives such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/dulcolax\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dulcolax<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/prescription\/bisacodyl\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bisacodyl<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), and bulk laxatives such as fiber.
