Composition of Duphalac Lemon Oral Solution

Duphalac Lemon Oral Solution contains Lactulose (3.335gm/5ml). It belongs to the Osmotic laxative (disaccharide) class of medicines.

Uses of Duphalac Lemon Oral Solution

  • Constipation
  • Hepatic encephalopathy (to reduce blood ammonia levels)

Benefits of Duphalac Lemon Oral Solution

In Constipation
Duphalac Lemon Oral softens the stool or encourages the bowel to move, relieving constipation and the straining, bloating and discomfort that go with it.
In Bowel preparation
Duphalac Lemon Oral empties the bowel completely before a colonoscopy or surgery, so the doctor has a clear view and the procedure is safe.

How Duphalac Lemon Oral Solution works

Lactulose is an osmotic laxative that draws water into the colon, softening stool and promoting bowel movements. In hepatic encephalopathy, it acidifies colonic contents and traps ammonia as ammonium, reducing absorption.

How to take Duphalac Lemon Oral Solution

Take by mouth as directed, with or without food; measure dose using a cup/spoon. For constipation, effect may take 24-48 hours; drink adequate fluids. For hepatic encephalopathy, dose is adjusted to achieve 2-3 soft stools/day.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause severe loose motions, dehydration and salt imbalance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Most side effects of Duphalac Lemon Oral are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Flatulence
  • abdominal cramps
  • bloating
  • nausea
  • diarrhea

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
