Melaxose, an osmotic laxative, is used to manage constipation by increasing intestinal water content.

- Constipation: softens stool and promotes regular bowel movements in adults and children. - Hepatic encephalopathy: lowers intestinal ammonia absorption, helping to control neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with liver disease. - Pediatric constipation: provides a gentle, age‑appropriate option for relieving constipation in children.

Common Side Effects: - Abdominal bloating - Flatulence - Mild diarrhea - Nausea

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe electrolyte imbalance (e.g., low potassium) - Allergic reaction such as rash, itching or swelling - Persistent abdominal pain or rectal bleeding

Before using Melaxose, consider the following precautions: - Dose adjustment: required in patients with renal impairment. - Monitor electrolytes: especially potassium levels during prolonged use. - Avoid in intestinal obstruction: may worsen blockage. - Caution in diabetes: lactulose can affect blood glucose control. - Pregnancy and lactation: safety not established; consult a healthcare professional. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture.

Melaxose may interact with other medicines as follows:

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Antibiotics such as neomycin: may reduce lactulose efficacy. - Antidiarrheal agents (e.g., loperamide): counteract the laxative effect.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Mineral supplements (e.g., magnesium): may increase risk of diarrhea. - Diabetes medications: monitor blood glucose as lactulose can alter absorption. - Other osmotic laxatives: additive laxative effect may lead to excessive fluid loss.
