What is Exlax?
Exlax is a brand of laxative drug known as a “stimulant laxative”. Main uses of this product are for constipation, or in other words – when you really need to poo but can’t. The active ingredient is called Sennosides, derived from Senna Leaves. It works by stimulating and irritating the intestines, causes contractions and eventually expulsion of the poo. There are certainly other types of laxatives, but this is the one we recommend. It comes in pill form, which you can crush up. Here’s the thing, you can use this product for other nefarious ventures as well.
There are also other laxatives out there, such as Magnesium Citrate, which are meant to literally “evacuate the colon prior to surgery.” The choice is yours for what you want to use. What’s good about Magnesium Citrate is that it can come in liquid form in a variety of flavors, from cherry, blueberry, grape, lemon, and strawberry. This is far better if you wish to add to an already favored beverage your nemesis desires, like soda or koolaid.
Also, we’d recommend getting the powder, since it is much simpler to add to your dry mix of ingredients.
To prepare for this revenge prank, first you have to find out what your mark enjoys to eat and/or drink. If it’s a close friend or relative, this should be relatively simple. If you can add this in their favorite meal such as cookies, ice cream, or bake into brownies, it will be far more simple for you to get the ‘medicine’ working in their system.
If you opted for Exlax, be sure to crush the pills into a powder to mix with food, or if you’ve already purchased the powder, you’ll be good to go. Magnesium citrate is great in juice, which we’d go that route if you wanted to mix up some Koolaid.
Laxative Prank Recipes
Here’s some recipes to try and add your naughty product to.
I. Oatmeal Exlax Cookies:
These are the cookies made in Furious Pete’s video below.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix the butter and eggs. Line baking pan with cookie sheet. Add the dry mix (with laxative) to the butter and egg mixture, mix thoroughly. Use a rounded spoon or melon baller to scoop mix onto pan. Cook for 12 minutes, until outsides are golden brown. Take out of the oven, and let cool for 5 minutes before handing over to your enemy!
II. Chocolate Laxative Brownies:
Note: The chocolate exlax would be perfect for this prank.
To make these exlax brownies, all you’ll need is the brownie mix, a quarter cup of water, a half a cup of vegetable oil, one egg, and of course the chocolate exlax. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix all the wet ingredients in a bowl, and then incorporate the brownie mix & exlax into the wet mix. Spray the cooking pan, and place the mixture inside. Cook for about 40-45 minutes, or until you can stick a knife into the brownie and it comes out clean. Set to cool, cut, and get your mark!
Misusing laxatives can cause ruined colons in the long run, and can cause extreme discomfort. Laxative abuse is a real thing, so be sure to not pull this prank more than once a month on your mark. Hopefully once will be more than enough. Other side affects include cramping, lightheadedness, and nausea, but I mean.. you’re basically giving them diarrhea. While we haven’t heard of any serious injuries from using these as pranks, we’d recommend not doing them. Now that this disclaimer is out of the way, on to the best part. Seeing it in action!!!
And of course, here’s some awesome videos:
Watch John prank Nikki with laxative ice cream and kool aid.
Watch Furious Pete use laxative powder on his girlfriend.
If I use the tablets ,how much should I use?
If you use tablets, it all depends on the strength and the dosage. The powder is easier to use, but you can crush up one pill into one cookie for instance, to mask the taste.
Had an employee drench me with water n hit me with tape measure used whole box chocolate tabs
thats just cruel u should have used 2 boxs
Does it have to be chocolate exlax or can I use miralax?
I’d think mira-lax might taste chalky—it is also not as strong as Ex-Lax which has senna as its lacative.
Not real. U can’t add magnesium citrate to kool-aid cause it’s too salty. Anyone would notice that.
beautiful thing about Mg citrate is it’s pretty powerful, so you don’t need a lot, especially if you just want to occupy their time with going back and forth to the toilet and not giving them explosive ass (that you might have to help clean up or live with the mess). you do need a ‘stronger’ flavor though, not one of the ‘light,’ watery flavors (fruit punch or orange is good, kiwi strawberry is iffy…lemonade might work too), and maybe add a little extra sugar, not too much. i wouldn’t dump the whole bottle in a pitcher of Kool-Aid, but a capful in a tall glass should do, especially if they go for a second one. a lot easier to miss the salty that way, easier still if they’re say eating potato chips or popcorn or pretzels with it.
hmm, a lot of salty snacks starting with “p”…
So I’m trying to prank someone I truly hate and was thinking about putting laxatives in a small batch of brownies. This guy is in his 40s and is pretty healthy (don’t know if this matters). What’s the most I can put in the batch where just 1 brownie can make him explode in his pants before he rushes to a toilet? I onlyhave 2 days to do it.
What happened @jerry Lee
How much do they need to eat for it to be effective? Would just one brownie in a batch be enough for my enemies to lose all control?
I made brownies last night and put a whole box of choc cut up like choc chips. He ate one brownie and nothing happened. Sure hope he eats 2 or 3 so I know I got him.
Anyone know how you would test a cookie to see if it has ex-lax in it? Besides the obvious bathroom visits it’s hard for us to pinpoint what is causing our issue. It’s just a suspicion about the cookies. Could be that our two year old brought something home from daycare…
Maybe simple food poisoning or stomach bug. Throw away the cookies and see what happens.
Do they work I need to do this for my teacher that I hate
Knowingly giving someone else a laxative without their consent can land you jail.
Years ago an employer (husband & wife) decided to put the exlax laxative into a cake
for their employees and they both ended up serving time in prison.
Do not slip anyone a substance that they have not agreed to take.
Was hoping someone would address this. Secret laxative pranks are actually assaults in many jurisdiction, and I strongly recommend people NOT do this.
I want to put this in pizza because people in my dorm keep stealing them from me. Any advise on usage?
Make the pizza your self and put it in the sauce
Is there a chance i could go to jail for doing this? Also how many years will I be possibly facing?
Only if it can be traced to you will you maybe face a jail term. If they cannot trace it to you then you won’t get into trouble.
If I was to put eZlax in a salad dressing which kind would mask the taste of the pills?
Tried to prank bf with it in his beer last night but didn’t work he knew something was up BC there beer didn’t stop foaming and even tho it was crushed finely it clumped in the and spit everywhere and he still doesn’t know what was in the beer and I refuse to tell him until I get him successfully. Don’t put in beer and need suggestions
yeah exlax and whatnot doesn’t work well with carbonated beverages like beer that get the bubbles from fermentation, like you said they don’t stop fizzing (kinda like Mentos and Diet Coke lol). some sodas are iffy too. for salad dressing, i mean that’s pretty oily, just mix some in a creamy dressing with herbs or some other solid bits in it (so if you miss and don’t have it crushed up all the way he won’t notice), or shake it up really good in a vinaigrette with olive oil and a strong vinegar like cider vinegar or balsamic and some herbs or crushed garlic…
people at my work treat the refridgerators in the break room as a free for all. im gunna make the strongest batch of laxtive brownies ever created and watch them stand in line for the two toilet bathroom>:)
I want some Porch Pirates to explode their pants so I plan to take some Mira-lax and prepare a care package filled with brownies to teach them a lesson. They deserve it after stealing $70 worth of clothes I ordered. They have also, robbed from my neighbors as well. Hopefully, they will eat these brownies’ and learn a much needed lesson.
I pulled the chocolate laxative brownies prank. I used the recipe on this website. I put a whole box of chocolate Exlax in the batch of brownies that I made. I pulled this prank on my sister on her wedding day. She had been eating a lot lately because she was nervous about the wedding. She eats a lot when she is nervous. I gave her a big pan of brownies that morning before her wedding and she ate them all by herself. She did not get to come to the wedding because she was in the bathroom all day. Our parents were sort of mad at her because they spent all of this money on a big wedding and relatives came from a long way. It was so funny! I ruined her dream that she has had since childhood of a nice wedding. They ended up having to get married by the Justice of the Peace. My parents refused to spend anymore money on a wedding. They had already lost a bunch of money on the first wedding. None of the relatives came back either, they were all mad at my sister too. I am sure that if they had not given her gifts already they would not have.
Wow, that’s messed up but thanks for sharing. What did she do to you to have her ruin her wedding?
There is a person who thinks it’s okay to steal burritos and butter from the community fridge in our dorm. I really hope he likes orange juice. ;}
christmas is coming give ex lax brownies
some one has been stealing my honey bun at school. I have came up with an alternative way if you don’t want to take the time to bake brownies. get the kind of laxative that looks likes chocolate and melt it on your desert. They will basically be eating pure laxative with the honey bun masking the taste. STEALING SOMEONES HONEY BUN IS SERIOUS BUISSNESS!!!!
I made ExLax brownies when there was repeated theft of my lunch from the company fridge, years ago. Never found out who did it, but the thieving stopped. That is all I wanted.
