Lactulose (10gm)
Active composition
Lactulose is metabolized by colonic bacteria, producing organic acids that draw water into the colon and enhance stool passage.
Medical applications
Laxday Syrup contains Lactulose 10gm, a synthetic disaccharide used primarily as an osmotic laxative for the treatment of chronic constipation and hepatic encephalopathy. Lactulose works by metabolizing in the colon into low molecular weight organic acids, which acidify the colon contents, thereby increasing osmotic pressure and promoting bowel movements. This mechanism facilitates the softening of stools and enhances peristalsis, providing effective relief from constipation. Additionally, in hepatic encephalopathy, Lactulose reduces blood ammonia levels by converting ammonia to ammonium ions in the colon, which are less readily absorbed, thus helping to prevent neurotoxic effects. Laxday Syrup is typically administered orally, with dosage individualized based on patient response and clinical condition. It is generally well tolerated; however, common side effects may include flatulence, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea if overdosed. Caution is advised in patients with galactosemia or those requiring electrolyte monitoring. Laxday Syrup should be used under medical supervision, especially in long-term therapy, to ensure optimal efficacy and safety. It is contraindicated in cases of intestinal obstruction or acute surgical abdomen. Overall, Laxday Syrup is an effective and reliable option for managing constipation and hepatic encephalopathy.
