What is Stool Softener?

A Stool Softener is a medicine that helps empty the bowels to relieve constipation, a condition in which the bowels are not emptying regularly or completely. Constipation can cause stools to be hard, lumpy, and large, making emptying the bowels even more difficult. In addition, stools that are too large and hard could cause injury to the rectum when passed. Stool softeners change the surface tension of the stool so that it absorbs more water, becoming softer and easier to pass.

Stool softeners such as docusate and Dulcolax are used as a gentle way to treat constipation; as a way to prevent rectal pain or injury in people suffering constipation; in patients who have or are at risk for rectal injury; in patients, such as people who have had heart attacks or surgery, who must avoid straining when passing stools; and as an additional active ingredient in drugs or supplements that cause constipation, such as iron supplements.

Other types of laxatives are often referred to or marketed as “stool softeners” because they soften stools as a secondary effect by increasing the water content in the intestines. Osmotic laxatives, such as Miralax and polyethylene glycol, for instance, draw water from the intestinal walls into the intestines. Lubricant laxatives, such as mineral oil, prevent water from being absorbed by intestinal tissues, which also produces softer stools as a secondary effect. Saline laxatives add water to the intestines. The increased water content is intended to make stools easier but also results in softer stools. So all three types of laxatives—osmotic laxatives, lubricant laxatives, and saline solution—can be considered a type of stool softener.
