Lactulose Solution is a medication used to treat constipation and hepatic encephalopathy, which is a condition that can occur in people with liver disease. The bottle contains a solution of lactulose, a type of sugar that is not absorbed by the body.
Key benefits of Lactulose:
-
Effective Relief from Constipation: Lactulose Solution softens stools by increasing their water content, making them easier to pass and providing relief from chronic constipation.
-
Versatile and Suitable for All Ages: Can be used by individuals of all ages, including children and the elderly.
-
Easy to Consume: Comes in an easy-to-measure, sweet-tasting liquid that can be taken directly or mixed into a non-alcoholic drink for easy consumption.
-
Promotes Digestive Health: Regular use aids in maintaining a healthy and regular digestive routine.
When taken orally, lactulose solution works by increasing the water content and volume of stools, making them softer and easier to pass. It also helps to stimulate the natural contractions of the intestines, which helps to move stools through the digestive system.
Lactulose solution is generally safe and well-tolerated. However, like all medications, it may cause side effects in some people. These can include bloating, flatulence, and abdominal cramps. It is important to speak with your healthcare provider before taking lactulose solution, particularly if you have any underlying medical conditions or are taking other medications.
