Mechanism of Action: How Does Senokot Work?
Understanding senokot how does it work involves a two-step colonic pathway:
-
Colonic Bacterial Cleavage: Sennoside glycosides pass through the stomach and small intestine unabsorbed. Upon reaching the colon, resident microflora enzymes cleave the sugar molecules, converting sennosides into the active compound Rhein-anthrone.
-
Myenteric Plexus Stimulation: Rhein-anthrone directly stimulates the myenteric plexus (Auerbach's plexus) within the colonic wall. This induces rhythmic propulsive contractions (peristalsis) while inhibiting fluid reabsorption, resulting in softer, easier-to-pass stools.
Ingredients:
- Active Ingredient (per tablet): Standardized Senna Fruit (Pods) extract equivalent to 7.5mg Sennosides (calculated as Sennoside B).
- Tablet Excipients: Calcium Phosphate, Maize Starch, Lactose Monohydrate, Magnesium Stearate, Colloidal Anhydrous Silica.
