Overview Cadilose Oral Solution

Lactulose oral solution is a sugar-based medication used to alleviate constipation. Functioning as a laxative, it softens stools by increasing bowel water content. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder causing cognitive impairment, tremors, and reduced alertness. Lactulose can be administered with or without food, always as directed by your physician. For optimal results, consistent daily dosing at the same time(s) is recommended. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on efficacy. Never exceed the prescribed amount, and avoid doubling up on missed doses. The onset of action is typically 48 hours or more. Consult your doctor if constipation persists after three days. Common, usually mild and transient, side effects include nausea and vomiting. Serious side effects such as severe diarrhea and electrolyte disturbances are possible; seek immediate medical attention if these occur. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor if you have diabetes or lactose intolerance. Prolonged use might necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent use with other laxatives, and consult your doctor if pregnant or breastfeeding.
