yes, they both work as the same. I take either one and they both do the job for me.
It can depend on which "laxative" you are taking though. For instance Movicol and Sodium docusate are both "laxatives", one is a capule and one is a powder that dissolves in water. However they both work in different ways to facilitate bowel movements.

What is the difference between pill form and liguid methadone?
There may be a slight difference in the time it takes to get into your system. I have heard people say that the liquid worse for your teeth and tongue but it's probably minimal at best. Methadone 10mg pills take an hour and Ten minutes to feel the effect. With the liquid it usually takes around 25 minutes to a half an hour. Also Liquid is injectable where as some forms of the pills will gell up on you making them not injectable. Another problem is that the pills have been known to cause more nausea.

Can you get addicted to laxatives?
Laxatives can be addictive, however, not in the same way as a narcotic drug or cigarettes. The more you use laxatives the more your bowel movements will become dependent on them. A bottle may recommend taking only 2 tablets. However, after prolonged use, you will have to take more for them to work. Fairly soon you will be taking handfuls and up to a few bottles of laxatives in order to have a bowel movement. With prolonged use you will become completely dependent on laxatives in order to have a bowel movement, and you can cause yourself to become constipated permanently.
Why all Homeopathic medicines look alike?
Homeopathic medicines are prepared by dispensable alcohol in majority of preparations. The white pills are non-medicinal and are used as a medium to administer the homeopathic medicines. Therefore, all homeopathic medicines have the same appearance (pills) in which the medicine in the liquid form is added.
