Laxil Oral Solution

Product Introduction

Laxil Oral Solution is a gentle laxative used for the treatment of constipation. It contains Lactulose, which works by drawing water into the intestine, softening stools, and making them easier to pass. It is also sometimes used to manage hepatic encephalopathy (a liver-related condition) by reducing toxins like ammonia in the blood. Being in liquid form, it is easy to take and suitable for children, adults, and elderly patients.
