A compound with lubricating, osmotic, emollient, and hydrating properties.
Administered rectally, it generally produces an evacuation within 15-20 minutes.
Glycerol's mechanism of action is hyperosmotic, drawing water into the feces and dehydrating the tissues it contacts.
This dehydration causes a local irritant effect that triggers peristaltic contractions, stimulating the emptying of the rectal ampulla.
Glycerol, administered rectally, can promote peristalsis and evacuation of the lower intestine due to its irritant action and its ability to soften hardened fecal matter.
