Drug Details
Lactulose, also known as Enulose, is a medication used to manage and prevent brain-related complications arising from liver disease, specifically hepatic encephalopathy. This condition occurs when the liver is unable to effectively eliminate toxins from the blood, leading to symptoms such as confusion and drowsiness. Lactulose works as a colonic acidifier by reducing ammonia levels in the blood, thereby improving mental function. It is available as a liquid osmotic laxative typically taken orally 3 to 4 times daily to achieve 2 to 3 soft stools per day. In severe cases, such as coma induced by hepatic encephalopathy, it can be administered rectally. While it does not cure the underlying liver disease, lactulose helps alleviate symptoms. Common side effects include stomach discomfort and flatulence. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
