Overview Watralac 10gm Oral Solution

Lactulose 10g oral solution, a sugar-based laxative, relieves constipation by increasing bowel water content, facilitating stool passage. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver condition causing mental confusion, tremors, and reduced alertness. This medication may be taken with or without food, always as prescribed. Consistent daily use at the same time(s) maximizes effectiveness; dosage adjustments may be necessary. Avoid exceeding the recommended dose; missed doses should not be doubled. Onset of action is typically within 48 hours. Consult your physician if constipation persists beyond three days. Nausea and vomiting are common, usually mild and transient. Severe diarrhea or electrolyte imbalances are possible serious side effects, requiring immediate medical attention. Inform your doctor of diabetes or lactose intolerance prior to use. Prolonged use might necessitate periodic blood tests to monitor electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium and sodium). Avoid concurrent use with other laxatives. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical counsel before using this medication.
