Answer 2

Answer:

Option (a) - Liquid paraffin: stool softener

Option (c) - Lactulose: osmotic purgative

Option (d) - Ispaghula: bulk-forming are correct options.

Explanation:

Liquid paraffin: stool softener:

Liquid paraffin, which makes up LIQUID PARAFFIN, lubricates or softens excrement and coats the colon or intestines with an oil film to operate. Thus, LIQUID PARAFFIN relieves constipation by easing the pain brought on by anorectal conditions like piles, fistula, or fissure.

Lactulose: osmotic purgative:

Osmotic laxatives are drugs that add water to the stool, producing softer stools and more frequent, simpler bowel motions. Osmotic laxatives including milk of magnesia, lactulose, and polyethylene glycol (PEG) are frequently used.

Ispaghula: bulk-forming:

The "bulk" or weight of your poop is increased by bulk-forming laxatives, which then stimulates your bowel. They need two or three days to work. Fybogel is among the laxatives that cause bulk (ispaghula husk)
