Action
Castor oil has a laxative effect. Castor oil breaks down in the intestine into glycerin and ricinoleic acid (which undergoes saponification). The laxative effect is due to the acid and soaps – they irritate the intestines, increasing peristalsis (peristalsis). Additionally, they increase the amount of water in the intestinal lumen, softening stools, among other things.
Indications
Constipation.
Contraindications
Do not use Castor oil: in case of hypersensitivity (allergy) to castor oil; if you have inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, intestinal obstruction, as well as in combination with inflammation of the abdominal organs (including appendicitis), in case of abdominal pain of unknown origin.
Side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
Castor oil may cause irritation of the small intestine, congestion of the large intestine, and pelvic organs. In particularly sensitive individuals, castor oil may cause a rash. Some people may experience other side effects when using castor oil.
