Bisacodyl is indicated to treat constipation and bowel evacuation for procedures. Bisacodyl is a contact laxative which acts on the large intestine to produce strong but brief peristaltic movements. This agent stimulates sensory nerve endings to produce parasympathetic reflexes which results in peristalsis of the colon. Local axon reflexes and segmental reflexes are stimulated, which produces widespread peristalsis of the colon. Due to its mechanism of action, bisacodyl may be effective in patients with ganglionic blockage or those with spinal cord damage.
