Sodium sulfate is an inorganic salt, historically used as a saline laxative (also known as Glauber's salt), for bowel cleansing before procedures, and occasionally as a source of electrolyte replacement. It is not a routinely used or approved pharmaceutical agent in modern medicine for oral or intravenous therapy due to availability of more suitable agents.
Estimated pharmacokinetic parameters for healthy adults, as no peer-reviewed PK study specific to pharmaceutical use of sodium sulfate in humans was identified.
