Generally, Maziren Pill is mainly composed of traditional Chinese herbs such as Cannabis semen (fire hemp seed), rhubarb,枳实 (Fructus Aurantii Immaturus), and厚朴 (Magnolia bark), and has the effect of moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements. Maziren Pill is not a laxative. If discomfort occurs, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly. Detailed analysis is as follows:

Maziren Pill primarily works by increasing water content in the intestines and enhancing intestinal motility, thereby softening stools or lubricating the intestinal tract to facilitate defecation. Its purpose is to improve the intestinal environment and relieve constipation and related symptoms, rather than solely aiming for rapid purgative effects. Therefore, in terms of drug classification, Maziren Pill is more accurately categorized as an herbal formulation that moistens the intestines and promotes bowel movements. Hence, Maziren Pill is not considered a laxative.

When using Maziren Pill, attention should be paid to appropriate user groups, duration of use, and adherence to medical advice to ensure safe and effective medication use.
