Phenolphthalein
Phenolphthalein is a stimulant laxative that was historically used for the relief of constipation by irritating the colonic mucosa to stimulate peristalsis and reduce water absorption. It has been withdrawn from most over-the-counter markets due to evidence of carcinogenicity in animal studies, with concerns about its potential association with bladder and breast cancer.
