Description of Sodium Picosulfate

Sodium Picosulfate is a laxative.

Sodium Picosulfate is a laxative that inhibits water and electrolytes absorption and increases their secretion. In cultured human, rat and rabbit liver cells, sodium picosulfate (1600 μg/ml) reduced the protein content in rabbit liver cells. Also, hepatocytes of rabbit were more sensitive to sodium picosulfate [1].

In patients underwent a barium enema, sodium picosulphate reduced the serum concentrations of sodium, potassium and urea by 1.299, 0.163 and 0.556, respectively [2]. In patients with morphine sulphate induced constipation, sodium picosulfate was well-tolerated and significantly improved constipation with normal stool consistency, not requiring suppositories, manual evacuation or enemas [3]. In patients with chronic constipation, sodium picosulphate (7 mg) improved stool frequency and straining in 82.8% patients and reduced bloating [4].

In vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution) of Sodium Picosulfate

Step 1: Enter information below (Recommended: An additional animal making an allowance for loss during the experiment)

mg/kg g μL

Step 2: Enter the in vivo formulation (This is only the calculator, not formulation. Please contact us first if there is no in vivo formulation at the solubility Section.)

%DMSO %

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
