Overview Lactofresh 10gm Syrup

Lactulose 10gm syrup, a sugar-based medication, alleviates constipation by acting as a laxative. Its mechanism involves drawing fluid into the bowel, softening stool for easier passage. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder manifesting as cognitive impairment, tremors, and reduced alertness. Lactulose 10gm syrup can be administered with or without food, strictly as prescribed by your physician. Consistent daily use at the same time(s) maximizes efficacy. Dosage adjustments may occur based on response. Never exceed the recommended dose, and avoid doubling up on missed doses. Onset of action requires at least 48 hours. 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 initiating treatment, disclose any existing diabetes or lactose intolerance to your doctor. Prolonged use might necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (such as potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent use with other laxatives. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical counsel before use.
