Ingredients
Senokot contains carefully measured herbal ingredients to ensure consistent results and reliable relief.
Active Ingredients
- Sennosides (from Senna leaf extract) – 8.6 mg per tablet
Senna is a natural stimulant laxative derived from the senna plant. It works by stimulating the muscles in the colon, helping move stool through the intestines more efficiently.
Inactive Ingredients

- Silicon dioxide
Inactive ingredients support tablet stability, absorption, and shelf life. They do not contribute to the laxative effect but ensure safe and consistent delivery.
