Overview Looz Oral Solution

Lactulose Oral Solution, a sugar-based medication, effectively treats constipation by acting as a laxative. It softens stool through increased bowel water retention. Additionally, it's used to manage hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder characterized by confusion, tremors, and reduced consciousness. Lactulose may be administered with or without food, always following your physician's instructions. Consistent daily use, ideally at the same time(s), maximizes effectiveness. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on response. Never exceed the prescribed amount, and avoid doubling doses if a dose is missed; the effects take at least two days to become apparent. Consult your doctor if constipation persists after three days. Nausea and vomiting are common, generally mild, and transient. Serious adverse reactions, including severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalances, are rare but necessitate immediate medical attention. Inform your doctor of any existing diabetes or lactose intolerance before commencing treatment. Prolonged use might necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (like potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent laxative use and consult your doctor regarding pregnancy or breastfeeding.
