Laxative treatment elevates plasma homocysteine: a study on a population-based Swedish sample of old people

The homocysteine level depends on the supply of folate and cobalamine, and constipation and/or laxative treatment might compromise this supply. The present study examined the impact of constipation and laxative treatment on the blood levels of homocysteine, folate and
