How P-L Jelly Topical Gel (1 gm+1.3 gm)/50 gm works

When administered rectally, glycerin exerts a hygroscopic and/or local irritant action, drawing water from the tissues into the feces and reflexively stimulating evacuation. Glycerin decreases intraocular pressure by creating an osmotic gradient between the blood and intraocular fluid, causing fluid to move out of the aqueous and vitreous humors into the bloodstream.

Interacts with the solid surface through hydrogen bonding to thicken and prolong the formation time of a water-retaining film. Hydroxyethyl cellulose acts as a drug carrier or microsphere to entrap other drug molecules and form a viscous gel-like dispersion, enabling drug diffusion across biological membranes .
