Sometimes, it may hurt when you go to the loo. But you're not alone. Over 6 million people in the UK at any time find it painful or difficult to pass stools. The pain can be even worse if you have haemorrhoids or anal fissure. And to make it worse, it's embarrassing to talk about it, even to friends.

Thankfully, when you have hard, dry stools there's new DulcoEase. It's designed to make going to the loo more comfortable again. It works by gently softening hard, dry stools - making it easier to go. People often say that they can go to the loo, it just hurts when they do. This is where DulcoEase can help.

DulcoEase helps your stool absorb some of the body's natural fluids. It does this by decreasing the surface tension of the stool, and takes one or two days to start working. DulcoEase shows no suggestion of being habit forming. It can also be used when you have haemorrhoids or anal fissure, to soften hard, dry stools and help ease the pain and straining when going to the loo. It may be used, where needed, as a stool softener, alongside standard pain-relieving haemorrhoid remedies, and laxatives. DulcoEase contains docusate sodium. Always read the label.
