Physiological Effects: The Enemeez® formulation functions as a hyper-osmotic laxative by drawing water into the bowel from surrounding body tissues. When the docusate and soft soaps are introduced, there is excess fluid to be incorporated into the stool. Docusate salts function as softeners by preparing the stools to more readily mix with watery fluids. Increased mass of stool precipitates bowel evacuation by stimulating nerve endings in the bowel lining and initiating peristalsis. Not only does it soften and loosen the stool but it augments a normal stimulus.

Autonomic Dysreflexia or pain while producing a bowel movement.
Enemeez® Plus is the same formulation as Enemeez® with the addition of 20mg of Benzocaine. Individuals who experiences Autonomic Dysreflexia, pain while producing a bowel movement or irritation from Hemorrhoids should use Enemeez® Plus. The Benzocaine creates a numbing sensation that counteracts symptoms experienced from Autonomic Dysreflexia or eliminates pain and irritation.
