Overview Looz Oral Solution

Lactulose Oral Solution, a sugar-based laxative, alleviates constipation by drawing fluid into the bowels, facilitating stool passage. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver condition characterized by cognitive impairment, tremors, and reduced alertness. Lactulose may 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 be necessary based on response. Avoid exceeding the recommended dose; missed doses should not be doubled. Onset of action is typically within 48 hours. Consult your doctor if constipation persists beyond three days. Common, usually transient side effects include nausea and vomiting. Serious side effects such as severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalances warrant immediate medical attention. Inform your doctor of any pre-existing diabetes or lactose intolerance before commencing treatment. Prolonged use may necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium and sodium). Concurrent use of other laxatives is contraindicated. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical advice prior to use.
