EASY GO (Lactulose 10gm)

EASY GO is an oral solution used primarily to relieve constipation. It belongs to a class of medicines called laxatives, and works by drawing water into the bowel, making stools softer and easier to pass. It is also prescribed in cases of hepatic encephalopathy, a liver condition that can lead to confusion, shaking, and reduced consciousness due to a buildup of toxins in the body.

You can take EASY GO with or without meals. Follow your doctor’s directions carefully, and try to take it at the same time every day for the best results. The dose may be adjusted over time depending on your condition. Do not take more than the recommended amount, and if you miss a dose, skip it rather than doubling up. This medicine may take around 48 hours to start working. If your symptoms don't improve after 3 days, consult your healthcare provider.

Common side effects include nausea and vomiting, but these are generally mild and short-lived. In some cases, more serious side effects such as severe diarrhea or imbalances in your body's minerals may occur. If that happens, seek medical advice immediately.

Before using EASY GO, inform your doctor if you have diabetes or are lactose intolerant. Long-term use may require periodic blood tests to monitor your sodium and potassium levels. Avoid combining this medicine with other laxatives unless instructed by your doctor. Also, let your doctor know if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Management of Hepatic Encephalopathy

 

In Hepatic Encephalopathy:
EASY GO helps manage symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy, a serious liver-related brain disorder. It is believed to lower blood levels of ammonia, a substance that can cause mental confusion and tremors. When taken as prescribed, it can enhance brain function and help reduce the neurological effects of the disease.
 

Most side effects are minor and go away as your body adjusts. However, if they persist or become bothersome, consult your doctor.

Common Side Effects:
- Stomach cramps or pain
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea

 

Use this medicine exactly as your doctor advises. Shake the bottle well before use. Measure the correct dose using a measuring cup or spoon and take it by mouth. While EASY GO can be taken with or without food, maintaining a fixed schedule daily is ideal for consistent results.
 

EASY GO works by attracting water into the intestines through a natural process called osmosis, which helps soften the stool and promotes easier bowel movements.
