Overview Duphatis Syrup

Lactulose syrup, a sugar-based medication, effectively treats constipation by acting as a laxative. It softens stool through increased bowel water content. Additionally, it's used in managing hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder characterized by confusion, tremors, and reduced consciousness. Lactulose syrup may be administered with or without food, strictly as prescribed by your physician. For optimal results, consistent daily dosing at the same time(s) is recommended. Dosage adjustments may occur based on treatment efficacy. Never exceed the prescribed dosage, and avoid doubling up on missed doses. Onset of action takes at least two days. Consult your doctor if constipation persists beyond three days. Nausea and vomiting are common, usually mild and transient. Severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalances are less frequent but warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor of any pre-existing diabetes or lactose intolerance. Prolonged use may necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor mineral levels (e.g., potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent use with other laxatives. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their physician before use.
