Core Tip |
In patients with functional esophageal disorders such as in those with Parkinson's disease, bulk-forming laxative regimens may increase the risk of esophageal bezoar formation. Furthermore, bulk-forming laxatives such as psyllium seed husk can be purchased cheaply over the counter in the form of herbal medications. Therefore, we recommend that physicians pay more attention to the use of bulk-forming laxative regimens in these patients. Furthermore, optimal usage guidelines and warning messages may need to be included when selling psyllium seed husk as a health supplement. |
