Lubricant laxatives work by coating the stool, which allows it to be expelled more easily. The oily film covering the stool also keeps the stool from losing its water to intestinal reabsorption processes. Mineral oil (liquid petrolatum) is a non-prescription heavy oil that should be used with caution, if at all, since it may be aspirated into the lungs and cause lipoid pneumonia. This is of particular concern in the young or the elderly.
