Description

Constulose (Lactulose Solution) is a prescription osmotic laxative used in veterinary medicine to treat chronic constipation in animals. It draws water into the colon to soften stools and promote regular bowel movements. Constulose is also used to manage hepatic encephalopathy in animals by reducing elevated ammonia levels in the bloodstream.

Key Features

  • Effective Treatment for Constipation: Lactulose helps draw water into the colon, softening stools and encouraging regular bowel movements in pets suffering from constipation.
  • Helps Manage Hepatic Encephalopathy: Reduces blood ammonia levels in pets with liver issues by converting ammonia into ammonium, which is then excreted via the intestines.
  • Gentle and Non-Systemic: Lactulose works locally in the colon without being absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the risk of systemic side effects.
  • Adjustable Dosage: The dosage can be tailored to suit the size, breed, and specific condition of your pet, ensuring effective treatment.
  • Safe for Long-Term Use: Safe for prolonged use in pets with chronic constipation or hepatic encephalopathy, under veterinary guidance.

Ingredients

  • Lactulose: A synthetic disaccharide sugar that works as a laxative by drawing water into the colon to soften stools and promote bowel movements. It also helps manage hepatic encephalopathy by reducing blood ammonia levels.
  • Fructose: A monosaccharide sugar present in small amounts, contributing to the overall effect of lactulose.
  • Galactose: A monosaccharide sugar present in small amounts, contributing to the osmotic effect.
  • FD&C Yellow No. 6: A synthetic dye used for coloring the solution.
  • Purified Water: Used as the solvent for the solution.
  • Sodium Hydroxide: Used to adjust the pH level of the solution to ensure stability and effectiveness.

Directions

  • For Constipation or Hepatic Encephalopathy:
    • Administer 1 mL per 2 pounds of body weight every 8 hours initially.
    • Adjust the dosage based on your pet's response, as recommended by your veterinarian.

Storage Directions

  • Storage Temperature: Store at room temperature (20°C–25°C / 68°F–77°F).
  • Avoid Freezing: Do not freeze the product.
  • Color Change: A normal darkening of the product over time may occur, but this does not affect its therapeutic action.
  • Container: Keep tightly closed in the original container or a light-resistant container with a child-resistant closure.
