Bisacodyl stimulates the nerve endings in the walls of the large bowel (colon) and rectum. This medicine does not help with weight loss. In addition, Dulcolax melts in the rectum, releasing the bisacodyl to produce its effect on the colon and rectum wall. The suppositories start to work in about 15 to 30 minutes, so they are helpful if you want fast relief from constipation.
