Abstract
The present invention relates to a solid colonic purgative for oral application, containing anhydrous magnesium sulfate, potassium sulfate, anhydrous sodium sulfate, and, additionally, simethicone. The present invention is more satisfactory in the colon cleansing effect even with the doses reduced by up to about 20 percent compared to those of a conventional colonic purgative consisting of anhydrous magnesium sulfate, potassium sulfate and anhydrous sodium sulfate. Besides, the present invention, due to the reduced doses, has less unpleasant taste or odor caused by the main ingredients and requires a less intake of the preparation and water, improving drug compliance significantly. Further, unlike the conventional solid colonic purgative, the present invention can be prepared into tablets without using a water-soluble lubricant. In other words, the present invention can be formulated into a solid preparation for oral application by using a water-soluble lubricant, or even without using any water-soluble lubricant.
