Description
Looz Oral Liquid is used for treating constipation and can also be beneficial for a liver condition known as Hepatic Encephalopathy, which affects brain function. The primary ingredient in this medic
ation is lactulose. You can take Looz Oral Liquid with or without food, but it's essential to use it consistently to maximize its benefits. Try to take it at the same time each day. Your dosage may be adjusted based on its effectiveness, so do not exceed the recommended dose. If constipation persists for more than three days, consult your doctor. The most common side effects include mild nausea and vomiting, which typically resolve within a few days. Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have diabetes or lactose intolerance. Avoid taking other laxative medications at the same time, and consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
