Description:
Lactihep Syrup Lemon is a sugar-based medication commonly used to treat constipation by drawing water into the intestines, which helps soften the stool and promote easier bowel movements. It is also used in the treatment and prevention of hepatic encephalopathy, a liver-related condition that affects brain function.
This syrup should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor and can be consumed with or without food. You may choose to mix it with water or fruit juice for better taste. For optimal results, take it regularly at the same time each day. The dosage may be adjusted over time depending on how well the medicine is working, but it’s important not to exceed the recommended amount. Lactihep Syrup typically takes about 48 hours to begin working. If constipation persists beyond three days, consult your doctor.
Common side effects include nausea and vomiting, which are usually mild and temporary. Staying well-hydrated and taking the syrup between meals may help minimize discomfort. In rare cases, more serious side effects such as severe stomach pain, intense diarrhea, mood changes, or seizures may occur, and medical attention should be sought immediately if these develop.
Before starting Lactihep Syrup Lemon, inform your doctor if you have diabetes or lactose intolerance. Long-term use may require periodic blood tests to monitor mineral levels like potassium and sodium. Avoid using other laxatives alongside this medication unless advised by your doctor, and consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
