Pharmacokinetics

Lactitol carries out its effect only in the large intestine, where it completely enters after ingestion. It is absorbed in minimal quantities in unchanged form (no more than 0.5-2% of the accepted dose).

Clinical Pharmacology

In the large intestine, lactitol is broken down by the action of the intestinal flora into low molecular weight organic acids, which leads to an increase in osmotic pressure in the large intestine, an increase in the amount of feces, their softening, easier defecation and normalization of the intestine. The laxative effect usually occurs within 24 hours after the use of the drug (the delay is due to the passage of the drug through the gastrointestinal tract).At the beginning of the course of treatment, a laxative effect of the drug may be delayed, the effect may occur on the second or third day of its use.

In patients with hepatic encephalopathy or hepatic coma (or precoma), the effect is achieved by migration of ammonia from the blood into the colon (due to lower pH, increased osmotic pressure in the intestinal lumen), removal of retained ammonium ions and other nitrogen-containing toxic substances from the colon. Lactitol inhibits proteolytic bacteria and increases the number of acidophilic bacteria.

Contraindications

• Individual intolerance to lactitol.
• Galactosemia
• intestinal obstruction.
• Suspected organic damage to the gastrointestinal tract.
• Abdominal pain.
• Rectal bleeding of unknown origin.

Interaction
