ADULTS: the average 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 per day, even in a single administration, depending on the age and severity of the case. INFANTS: on average 2.5 g per day.

INTERACTIONS
Medicines used with indications other than lactulose: broad spectrum antibiotics, administered orally at the same time as lactulose, can reduce its degradation by limiting the possibility of acidification of the intestinal contents and consequently the therapeutic efficacy. Laxatives can reduce the time spent in the intestine, and therefore the absorption, of other drugs administered simultaneously orally. Therefore, avoid ingesting laxatives and other drugs at the same time: after taking a medicine, allow an interval of at least 2 hours to elapse before taking the laxative.

SIDE EFFECTS
Occasionally: isolated cramping pains or abdominal colic, more frequent in cases of severe constipation. Occasionally: flatulence.
