- This product usually produces bowel movement in 1/2 to 6 hours. It is most commonly found as a liquid.
- The magnesium in the liquid can both neutralize excess stomach acid and, if taken in slightly larger doses, act as a saline laxative.
- This means that the magnesium works to pull salt or a saline solution from the blood into the intestines, therefore increasing the amount of water in the intestines and causing a laxative action.
