Overview Cadilose Oral Solution

Lactulose Oral Solution, a sugar-based laxative, effectively treats constipation by drawing fluid into the bowel, softening stools for easier passage. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder characterized by cognitive impairment, tremors, and reduced alertness. Lactulose can be administered with or without food, always as directed by your physician. For optimal results, take it consistently at the same time(s) daily. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on efficacy. Never exceed the prescribed amount, and avoid doubling doses if one is missed; the effects typically begin within 48 hours. Consult your doctor if constipation persists beyond three days. While nausea and vomiting are common, usually resolving within days, serious side effects like severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalances warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to use, inform your doctor about diabetes or lactose intolerance. Prolonged use may require periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent use with other laxatives, and consult your physician if pregnant or breastfeeding.
