STERIS'S LACTULOSE 200 ML
STERIS'S LACTULOSE 200 ML, containing Lactulose Solution USP, is a highly effective treatment for managing constipation and hepatic encephalopathy. It works by drawing water into the bowel, softening stools, and reducing blood ammonia levels in patients with liver disease, thereby improving overall digestive health.
Uses
- Chronic Constipation: Provides relief from chronic constipation by softening stools and promoting regular bowel movements.
- Hepatic Encephalopathy: Reduces blood ammonia levels in patients with liver disease, preventing hepatic encephalopathy and associated symptoms.
- Bowel Preparation: Occasionally used to prepare the bowel for certain medical procedures.
Mechanism of Action
- Lactulose: A synthetic disaccharide broken down in the colon into products that draw water into the bowel, softening stools and increasing stool frequency. This osmotic effect helps relieve constipation and reduce ammonia levels in the blood.

Precautions
- Allergies: Inform the healthcare provider about any known allergies to Lactulose or other medications.

- Diabetes: Use with caution in patients with diabetes due to the sugar content in Lactulose.
