What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Lactulose Overview
Lactulose is used by mouth or rectally to treat or prevent complications of liver disease (hepatic encephalopathy). It does not cure the problem, but may help to improve mental status. Lactulose is a colonic acidifier that works by decreasing the amount of ammonia in the blood. It is a man-made sugar solution.
How to Use Lactulose
If you are taking Lactulose by mouth for liver disease, take it usually 3-4 times a day or as directed by your doctor. To improve the taste, you may mix it into fruit juice, water, milk, or a soft dessert. The goal is to have 2-3 soft stools each day. Dosage of Lactulose is based on your medical condition and response to therapy (i.e., the number of soft stools each day). If you are taking Lactulose by mouth for constipation, take it usually once daily or as directed by your doctor. Lactulose can also be given rectally as an enema for liver disease. Mix the recommended amount of lactulose with 700 milliliters (24 ounces) of water or normal saline. Give the solution into the rectum and keep the liquid inside for 30-60 minutes as directed by your doctor. If you keep the enema inside for less than 30 minutes, repeat the dose unless directed otherwise. Use Lactulose regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use Lactulose at the same time each day. When Lactulose is given rectally for liver disease, an improvement in your mental status may occur in as little as 2 hours, but if you are taking Lactulose by mouth, it may take up to 24 to 48 hours. If you are using Lactulose for constipation, it may take up to 48 hours to have a bowel movement. Tell your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse.
