Major Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Gastrointestinal Obstruction
The use of laxatives is contraindicated in patients with intestinal obstruction disorders.

Some laxatives require reduction in the colon to their active form to be effective which may be a problem in patients with intestinal obstruction.
Bulk producing laxatives (applies to Maltsupex) renal dysfunction
Moderate Potential Hazard, High plausibility.
Bulk producing laxatives require the consumption of at least 8 ounces of fluid per each dose. Patients with fluid restriction conditions such as renal dysfunction may benefit more from emollient or stimulant laxatives.
