What is Purgatives and Laxatives Explained about?

The document discusses drugs that facilitate bowel evacuation, categorizing them into laxatives, which have a milder effect, and purgatives, which are stronger. It highlights Docusates (DOSS) as a laxative that softens stools by increasing water accumulation in the intestines, and mentions liquid paraffin as a historical stool softener that is pharmacologically inert. Both types of medications serve to promote easier bowel movements.
