The Global Osmotic Laxative Market is expected to gain with a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2028.

Osmotic laxatives are hypertonic agents that produce an osmotic effect that holds more colon and stimulates intestinal motility, resulting in softer stools. Osmotic laxatives are considered drugs of choice for the treatment of constipation. Lactulose, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and magnesia milk are commonly used osmotic laxatives. Manufactured by Braintree Laboratories in February 2020, LACTITOL was approved by the USFDA as an osmotic laxative for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC). Osmotic laxatives may take 2-3 days to take effect, so they are not suitable for quick relief from constipation.
