Overview Caldob L 10gm Syrup

Lactulose 10g syrup, a laxative, treats constipation by drawing fluid into the bowels, softening stool for easier passage. It's also used to manage hepatic encephalopathy, a liver condition causing cognitive impairment and motor disturbances. This syrup may be taken with or without food, as directed by your physician. Consistent daily dosing at the same time(s) maximizes effectiveness. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on response. Avoid exceeding the prescribed amount; missed doses shouldn't be doubled. Onset of action is typically within 48 hours. Consult your doctor if constipation persists after three days. Nausea and vomiting are common, usually mild and transient. Severe diarrhea or electrolyte imbalances are less frequent but require immediate medical attention. Inform your doctor of diabetes or lactose intolerance before use. Prolonged use may necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (potassium, sodium). Concurrent use of other laxatives is contraindicated. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their physician before use.
