General Actions (Not specific medical benefits for the user)
| Core Action | Mechanism |
| Relieves Constipation | Lactulose is an osmotic laxative. It is not absorbed in the small intestine, and once it reaches the colon, it draws water into the bowel, which softens the stool and stimulates bowel movements. |
| Reduces Ammonia Levels (in HE) | In patients with liver failure, Lactulose is metabolized by colonic bacteria into acids, which lowers the pH. This process traps ammonia (a neurotoxin) in the colon and converts it into a non-absorbable ion ($NH_4^+$), promoting its excretion in the feces. |
| Supports Bowel Flora | The fermentation of lactulose in the colon can also lead to a beneficial change in the gut flora, potentially inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria. |
| Non-Irritant Action | Unlike stimulant laxatives, lactulose works gently by osmotic action, making it a preferred choice for the long-term management of chronic constipation. |
⚠️ Important Safety Note:
