Lactulose (10gm)

Overview Laxose Oral Solution

Lactulose oral solution, a sugar-based medication, effectively treats constipation. Its laxative action softens stools by increasing bowel water content. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder causing mental confusion, tremors, and reduced alertness. Lactulose can be administered with or without food, always following your physician's instructions. Consistent daily use at the same time(s) optimizes its effects; dosage adjustments may be necessary. Never exceed the prescribed amount, and avoid doubling up on missed doses. Onset of action is typically within 48 hours. Consult your doctor if constipation persists beyond three days. Nausea and vomiting are common, usually mild and transient. Serious adverse effects, such as severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalances, warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to use, disclose any pre-existing diabetes or lactose intolerance to your doctor. Long-term use may necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent use with other laxatives. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their physician before use.
