Composition:
LACTITOL-10GM
Uses:
Constipation, Liver encephalopathy
Medicinal Benefits:
Toltol 66.67% Syrup belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives used to treat constipation. Additionally, Toltol 66.67% Syrup is also used to prevent hepatic encephalopathy (decrease in brain function due to liver disease). Toltol 66.67% Syrup contains Lactitol (laxative). Lactitol is a disaccharide sugar. It works by breaking down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, which increases the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools, and stool volume, thereby makes the stool softer and more comfortable to pass and provides relief from constipation. In patients with hepatic encephalopathy, lactitol lowers the colon pH, thereby suppresses the absorption of unionized ammonia and other toxins. It also enhances nitrogen excretion through feces.
