Medical Description

Laxtaz is an oral powder laxative used to treat constipation. Its active ingredient is lactitol, an osmotic agent. Lactitol works by increasing water content in the intestines, which softens stools and makes them easier to pass.

Uses

  • Constipation relief
  • Difficult bowel movements
  • Stool softening

Contraindications

Do not use this medicine if you are allergic to lactitol or any other ingredients. Do not use if you have galactosaemia, a rare condition where your body cannot process the sugar found in milk. Not suitable for patients with intestinal obstruction or acute surgical abdomen.

Side effects

  • Bloating
  • Gas
  • Abdominal discomfort

Breast Feeding

Driving

Driving

Alcohol

Alcohol

No direct interaction with alcohol, but alcohol may increase the risk of dehydration.

Directions for Use

Pour the oral powder into a glass of water or milk, stir well, and drink it immediately. Follow it up with a glass of water. Mix the recommended amount of oral powder with the recommended amount of liquid before taking it. Do not swallow the dry powder, as it can block your throat or airway.

Storage and disposal

Store oral powder at room temperature, ideally below 30°C, in a cool and dry place. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use to protect from moisture and humidity. Keep out of reach of children.

Quick Tips

  • Always mix oral powder with the recommended amount of liquid before taking it
  • Drink the prepared suspension immediately after stirring, as it will thicken rapidly if left standing
  • Avoid bedtime use, as lying down immediately after taking bulk laxatives increases the risk of throat irritation
  • Eat more fiber in your diet; recommended daily intake is 20-35 grams
  • Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water per day for better bowel movements
  • Exercise regularly at least 3 times per week
  • Do not use for more than a week unless advised by your doctor

Dosage

Overdose

If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Lactitol breaks down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, which increases osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools and stool volume, making the stool softer and easier to pass, thereby providing relief from constipation.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can interfere with this oral powder. Take oral powder at least 2 hours before or 4 hours after taking other medicines. Inform your doctor if you are taking diuretics (water pills) or digoxin, as excessive laxative use may affect potassium levels.

Interactions with food items

No specific food interactions. Drink plenty of fluids while taking this medicine to enhance effectiveness and prevent dehydration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do not use for more than a week unless advised by your doctor. Long-term use without medical supervision is not recommended.
