Lacturite Oral Solution belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives used to treat constipation. Lacturite Oral Solution is also used to treat hepatic encephalopathy. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Hepatic encephalopathy is a liver disease which causes the accumulation of toxic substances in the bloodstream which are normally removed by the liver.
Lacturite Oral Solution contains 'lactulose' which works by absorbing water from the body and into the bowel. This softens stools and makes it easier to pass. Besides this, it also reduces the amount of ammonia in the blood of patients with liver disease by drawing ammonia from the blood into the colon, thereby facilitating the removal of toxins from the body.
You are advised to take Lacturite Oral Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as diarrhoea, flatulence (wind), abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. 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.
Drink plenty of fluids (at least 6-8 glasses) while taking Lacturite Oral Solution. Consult your doctor before taking Lacturite Oral Solution if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Lacturite Oral Solution should be given to children only if prescribed by a child specialist. Do not take Lacturite Oral Solution if you have galactosaemia (galactose indigestion disorder). Inform your doctor if you have diabetes, or if you are due to undergo a colonoscopy. Chronic use of unadjusted doses or misuse of Lacturite Oral Solution may cause diarrhoea and electrolyte imbalance, therefore take it only as advised by the doctor.

Constipation: It refers to infrequent bowel movements. The stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Constipation is a medical condition in which the person has fewer than three bowel movements in a week. However, bowel patterns may vary from person to person. Symptoms include bloating, abdominal pain, and feeling as if the bowel movement is incomplete. Constipation occurs when the normal muscle contractions in the large intestine slow down, which causes the incomplete elimination of the bowel from the body. Constipation could be associated with a sudden change of diet, a diet with less fibre, not drinking enough liquids, and lack of exercise.
Hepatic encephalopathy: It is a liver/hepatic disease in which the liver does not remove the toxins from the body, which leads to loss of brain function. Hepatic encephalopathy causes confusion, tremor, decreased consciousness and coma.
