Duphalac Oral Solution Lemon Flavour is a laxative used to manage constipation and as an adjuvant in the management of hepatic encephalopathy (a liver disease causing confusion, shaking and decreased level of consciousness). It contains lactulose as active ingredient which helps to increase the number of bowel movements.
Lactulose is an artificial sugar that breaks down in the large intestine and then draws water into the intestine. This softens your stool, which helps to relieve constipation. It can also be used to reduce the level of ammonia in blood in people with liver disease.
Always take Duphalac Oral Solution Lemon Flavour as advised by your doctor. Do not take if you have galactosaemia (a rare problem), or a blockage caused by anything else except normal constipation, gastrointestinal perforation or risk of perforation, galactose or fructose intolerance, total lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption.
Inform your doctor if you have unexplained tummy ache, if you are unable to digest milk sugar (lactose intolerant), or if you have diabetes. Duphalac Oral Solution Lemon Flavour should only be given to infants and smaller children if specifically advised by the doctor.
