Spilooz Sugar Free Lemon Flavour Solution 200 ml is used to treat constipation. It is also used to treat hepatic encephalopathy. It 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. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as diarrhoea, flatulence (wind), abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

Disease/Condition Glossary

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.
