Laxsol is mainly used to treat constipation, but it may be used to prevent constipation in people who are taking opioid medicines. It is a combination of 2 medicines, docusate and senna, in a single tablet.
- Docusate increases the amount of fluid in your stools (poo) to soften them and make them easier to pass.
- Senna stimulates the muscles in your gut to help move your stools along so they can be passed more easily.
