RESUMEN
Los laxantes son sustancias utilizadas para provocar la defecación,
ya sea por estimulación química de la motilidad intestinal
o por un efecto de lubricación de las heces, por lo que
suelen ser prescritos para tratar el estreñimiento. La fenolftaleína
es un laxante cuyo abuso ha sido asociado en algunos
estudios con parálisis intestinal, perturbaciones electrolíticas,
hemorroides, pérdida de la función intestinal, pancreatitis y
el desarrollo de diversos tipos de cáncer. En esta revisión se
reporta literatura científica relacionada con el abuso prolongado
de laxantes que contienen fenolftaleína y su relación en
el desarrollo de cáncer. Los resultados de nuestra búsqueda
bibliográfica sugieren que el abuso prolongado de laxantes a
base de fenolftaleína debería considerarse un factor de riesgo
en el desarrollo del cáncer. Dicha evidencia es más clara en
modelos animales e
in vitro que en humanos. Por lo tanto, se
requiere de más estudios para determinar su mecanismo carcinogénico.
