Lactulose Zentiva syrup is a medicine used for the short-term treatment of occasional constipation and to improve bowel regularity.

Active ingredient

Lactulose.

Excipients

Syrup: sodium benzoate, purified water. Sachets: no excipient.

How to use

Adults: the daily dosage is 10-15 g in two doses. This dosage can be doubled or halved depending on the individual response or clinical picture. Children: from 2.5 to 10 g / day, even in a single administration, depending on the age and severity of the case. Infants: on average 2.5 g per day.

It is advisable to initially use the minimum doses provided. When necessary, the dose can then be increased, but without ever exceeding the maximum indicated. Take preferably in the evening. Laxatives should be used as infrequently as possible and for no more than seven days. Lactulose is absorbed to a very small extent and has no caloric value. However, the medicine contains, in addition to lactulose, also galactose, lactose and small amounts of other sugars.

This must be taken into account in the treatment of diabetic patients and in patients on low-calorie diets.
