1. Diarrheagenic effect: Senna leaf is usually considered to be a contact laxative. After direct contact with the intestinal mucosa, it can increase the permeability of the mucosa, make electrolytes and water diffuse into the intestinal cavity, so that the electrolytes in the intestinal cavity increase, and increase the periodic peristalsis, causing the diarrheagenic effect.
