Description

Docusate calcium is a sodium salt of docusate that is used as a stool softener and to treat constipation. It works by preventing the absorption of water from the colon and increasing fluid in the bowel. A high value for optimum concentration is necessary for Docusate calcium to work, which can be determined with fluorescence probe. The bioavailability of Docusate calcium depends on the sample preparation method and analytical method. It has long-term efficacy in vivo and shows an epidermal growth factor-like effect in vitro.
