MedlinePlus Drug Summary
Lactulose is a synthetic sugar used to treat constipation. It is broken down in the colon into products that pull water out from the body and into the colon. This water softens stools.

This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
