Lactifiber Granules is a laxative that is used to treat constipation. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful, and hard to pass.
Lactifiber Granules is a combination of two drugs; Ispaghula husk and Lactitol. Ispaghula husk is a bulk-forming laxative that increases the amount of water in the stool, making the stool softer and easier to pass. It can absorb 14 times more water than its weight. Therefore, drink plenty of water while taking Ispaghula. On the other hand, Lactitol is a disaccharide sugar. It breaks down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, increasing the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools, and stool volume, thereby making the stool softer and easier to pass and relieving constipation.
Take Lactifiber Granules as prescribed by your doctor. Try to take the Lactifiber Granules at a fixed time for the best results. Depending on your medical conditions, you are advised to take Lactifiber Granules for as long as your doctor prescribes it. You may experience certain common side effects in some cases, such as abdominal distension, cramps, and flatulence (gas). Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Lactifiber Granules for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Drink plenty of fluids (at least 6-8 glasses) while taking Lactifiber Granules. Consult your doctor before taking Lactifiber Granules if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; your doctor will prescribe you Lactifiber Granules only if the benefits outweigh the risks. Inform your doctor if there is no bowel movement or if you find rectal bleeding after taking Lactifiber Granules. Do not take Lactifiber Granules for more than a week as it might cause dependency on Lactifiber Granules for a bowel movement.
