Treatment 1: Lubricating laxatives, also known as stool softener, the main function of this kind of drugs is to lubricate the intestinal wall, soften the stool, and make the stool easy to discharge, such as liquid paraffin, etc. The main disadvantages of this kind of medicine are bad taste and weak effect. Long term application will cause malabsorption of fat soluble vitamins.

Treatment 2: irritant laxatives have fast effect and strong efficacy. Drugs or their metabolites can stimulate the intestinal wall and increase intestinal peristalsis. This kind of medicine mainly includes: fruit guide, castor oil, rhubarb, senna, etc. However, it should be noted that these drugs are mainly used in patients with incarcerated stool and need rapid defecation because they can stimulate the intestinal mucosa and the nerve plexus of the intestinal wall, and may cause colic myasthenia and form drug dependence.

Treatment 3: Volume laxative, also known as cathartic salt, because it is not absorbed by the intestinal wall and soluble in water, it can absorb a lot of water in the intestine, increase the volume of stool, and play a cathartic role. The main representative of this kind of cathartic is magnesium sulfate. However, because it can not increase the tension of colon, it is not suitable for those patients with intestinal motility retardation.
