Avelac Syrup 100ml

Avelac Syrup belongs to the osmotic laxative class of medicines, and its active ingredient is lactulose. It works gradually, drawing water into the bowel to soften stool, so it typically takes 24 to 48 hours before you notice an effect — don't expect immediate relief. Some people experience bloating, wind, or stomach cramps when they first start taking it, which often settles as your body adjusts to the dose. It's generally considered gentle and suitable for a wide age range, but because it's a sweet syrup, those with certain sugar intolerances should check with a doctor first. As with any laxative, it's meant for short- to medium-term use for constipation relief, and ongoing bowel issues are worth discussing with a healthcare professional.

For constipation, adults typically start with 15ml to 45ml daily, with a maintenance dose of 15ml to 30ml daily, adjusted according to response; children's doses are lower and age-dependent. Always follow the dosing guidance on the packaging or from your doctor or pharmacist.

• Bloating or flatulence
• Abdominal cramps or discomfort
• Nausea
• Diarrhoea if the dose is too high
• Electrolyte imbalance with excessive or prolonged use

Store at room temperature in a dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep out of reach and sight of children.

• Give it 24–48 hours to work before increasing your dose.
• Stay well hydrated while taking a laxative like this.
• Shake the bottle well before each use.
• Start with the lower end of the dosing range and adjust gradually.
• See a doctor if constipation persists beyond a week or two despite use.

Shake well before use and take Avelac Syrup by mouth, measured using a proper measuring cup or spoon. It can be taken with or without food, and mixing it with water or juice may make it more palatable if you find the taste too sweet.

Check the expiry date printed on the bottle or carton, and do not use beyond this date.

Lactulose 667mg/ml.

Avelac should not be used by individuals with galactosaemia, intestinal obstruction, or undiagnosed abdominal pain. It should also be avoided in those hypersensitive to lactulose or any of its components.

Avelac does not typically affect the absorption of oral contraceptives under normal use, but severe diarrhoea as a side effect could reduce contraceptive reliability, so speak to your doctor if this occurs. There are no major food-specific interactions, though very sweet foods or drinks taken alongside larger doses may add to feelings of bloating.
