Overview Sufalac Syrup Sugar Free

Lactulose sugar-free syrup is a laxative employed in the management of constipation. It facilitates bowel movements by increasing stool water content. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder characterized by cognitive impairment, tremors, and altered consciousness. This medication can be ingested with or without food, strictly as prescribed by your physician. Consistent daily use at the same time(s) optimizes its effects. Dosage adjustments may occur 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 after 72 hours. Common, usually transient side effects include nausea and vomiting. Serious adverse reactions such as severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalances warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor of any existing diabetes or lactose intolerance. Long-term use may necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium, sodium). Concurrent use of other laxatives is contraindicated; consult your doctor regarding pregnancy or breastfeeding.
