Clinical
Stool softeners are used on a short-term basis to relieve constipation by people who should avoid straining during bowel movements because of heart conditions, hemorrhoids, and other problems. They work by softening stools to make them easier to pass.
Read the full MedlinePlus article ↗Colace Extra Strength Stool Softener is an over-the-counter oral capsule containing 250 mg of docusate sodium. Docusate sodium is a stool softener typically used to make bowel movements easier and less straining by helping the stool retain moisture. This product is marketed under the FDA's monograph rules for over-the-counter digestive aids rather than through individual drug approval.
