Oxyphenisatine (or oxyphenisatin) is a laxative.[1] It is closely related to bisacodyl, sodium picosulfate, and phenolphthalein. Long term use is associated with liver damage,[2] and as a result, it was withdrawn in most countries in the early 1970s. The acetate derivative oxyphenisatine acetate was also once used as a laxative.
Natural chemical compounds similar to oxyphenisatine may be present in prunes,[3] but a recent review of the relevant scientific literature suggests that the laxative effect of prunes is due to other constituents including phenolic compounds (mainly neochlorogenic acids and chlorogenic acids) and sorbitol.[4]
