Active composition
Lactitol
How It Works
Lactitol is metabolized in the colon to short-chain fatty acids, increasing osmotic pressure and water content in the stool, facilitating defecation.
Uses & Benefits
Medical applications
Nutalact Syrup contains Lactitol 10gm per 5ml and is primarily indicated for the treatment of chronic constipation and hepatic encephalopathy. Lactitol is a synthetic disaccharide laxative that functions as an osmotic agent, promoting bowel movements by increasing water content in the colon, thereby softening stools and facilitating easier defecation. It is minimally absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in local osmotic effects without significant systemic exposure.

Nutalact Syrup is beneficial in managing constipation associated with opioid use, pregnancy, or other conditions where stool softening is desired. Additionally, it helps reduce blood ammonia levels in patients with hepatic encephalopathy by promoting the growth of non-urease-producing bacteria and reducing ammonia absorption from the gut. The usual dosage varies depending on the indication and patient response, and it should be administered under medical supervision.
Common side effects may include flatulence, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea if overdosed. Caution is advised in patients with galactosemia or intestinal obstruction. Nutalact Syrup should be stored at room temperature, protected from moisture and light. It is contraindicated in cases of hypersensitivity to lactitol or other components of the formulation. Always consult a healthcare professional before initiating therapy.
