Abstract
A taste-masked liquid composition of docusate includes a docusate salt, povidone, a polyether, and water. Additional ingredients in the composition may include thickeners, sweeteners, flavorants, polyols, preservatives, chelating agents and pH adjusters. Such compositions may be used as taste-masked oral compositions of docusate, and may provide therapeutic effects such as stool-softening.
