| description | Aim of the publication. To present an overview of current literature data on the possibilities of application of lactulose in clinical practice.Key findings. Lactulose is a synthetic disaccharide belonging to the class of osmotic laxatives. Officially permitted indications for its appointment in Russian Federation are functional constipation (including in children, the elderly and senile, pregnant women and women in postpartum period), an obstipation type of irritable bowel syndrome, the need to soften the consistency of feces in hemorrhoids and anal fissures, after operations on the colon and anorectal area, as well as hepatic encephalopathy. Other indications include preparation for colonoscopy, treatment and prevention of disorders of the intestinal microbiota, prevention of constipation in oncological patients receiving narcotic analgesics, as well as patients on artificial lung ventilation.Conclusion. Lactulose is a highly effective and safe drug, which combines osmotic laxative effect with expressed prebiotic action and is used in a wide clinical practice. |
