POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
The lactulose solution may be administered diluted or undiluted. The
dose should be titrated
according to the clinical response. Lactulose may be given as a single
daily dose or up to three
divided daily doses, using the measuring cup.
A single dose of lactulose should be swallowed in one and should not
be kept in the mouth for
an extended period of time.
The posology should be adjusted according to the individual needs of
the patient. The starting
dose can be adjusted after adequate treatment effect individually
(maintenance dose). Several
days (2-3 days) of treatment may be needed in some patients before
adequate treatment effect
occurs. In case of single daily dose, this should be taken at the same
time of the day, e.g.
during breakfast. During the therapy with laxatives it is recommended
to drink sufficient
amounts of fluids (1.5-2 l/day, equal to 6-8 glasses).
_Constipation_
After a few days the starting dosage may be adjusted to the
maintenance dose based upon
treatment response. Several days (2-3 days) of treatment may be needed
before treatment
effect occurs.
