Polyethylene Glycol Therapy

Polyethylene Glycol Therapy is a pharmacological intervention involving the administration of polyethylene glycol, a synthetic osmotic laxative, to induce bowel evacuation and maintain regular bowel movements, primarily distinguished by its mechanism of drawing water into the intestinal lumen without significant electrolyte absorption, thereby softening stool and facilitating defecation in the management of constipation, particularly in pediatric populations.
