Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Sodium Picosulfate is used for colon cleansing before colonoscopy. The common laxative principle of sodium picosulfate is that the hydrolysis of picosulfate, in contrast to that of bisacodyl, is attributable to the microorganisms of the intestinal flora.
