Lactulose Solution 500ml

What is Lactulose Solution?

Lactulose Solution is a natural laxative to help ease constipation.

Lactulose softens stools and promotes their movement through the bowel. It is a colonic acidifier and works by drawing water into the colon, which softens the stool and helps to produce a bowel movement.

Lactulose is different from some other laxatives, which work by stimulating your bowel and using muscular contractions to move your stools through your system.
