Product overview
About DulcoEase (30 capsules)
The gentlest answer in the laxative aisle: docusate sodium doesn't stimulate the bowel at all — it simply lets water into hard, dry stools so they soften and pass without straining. For constipation where comfort matters most. 30 soft gel capsules.
When softening beats stimulating
When passing is the painful part — after surgery, with piles or a fissure, in late pregnancy under advice — making stools softer solves the actual problem. Stimulants force a bowel movement; a softener makes the movement bearable.
How to take
Adults and children 12+: per the pack, with plenty of water through the day — a softener needs water to work with. Effects build over 1–3 days.
Good to know
Fibre, fluids and movement remain the long-term answer. Constipation with severe pain, vomiting, bleeding or a sudden habit change is GP territory before any laxative.

Frequently asked questions
How is a softener different from a laxative like senna?
Senna makes the bowel contract; docusate just lets water into the stool so it softens. Nothing is forced — passing simply stops hurting.
How long does it take?
1–3 days of regular doses with plenty of water — gentle is not instant.
Who is it best for?
Anyone for whom straining is the problem — piles, fissures, post-surgery, or under advice in pregnancy.
