About Emty Solution

Emty Solution belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives used to treat constipation. Emty Solution is also used to treat hepatic encephalopathy. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Hepatic encephalopathy is a liver disease which causes the accumulation of toxic substances in the bloodstream which are normally removed by the liver.

Emty Solution contains 'lactulose' which works by absorbing water from the body and into the bowel. This softens stools and makes it easier to pass. Besides this, it also reduces the amount of ammonia in the blood of patients with liver disease by drawing ammonia from the blood into the colon, thereby facilitating the removal of toxins from the body.

You are advised to take Emty Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as diarrhoea, flatulence (wind), abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

Emty Solution should be given to children only if prescribed by a child specialist. Do not take Emty Solution if you have galactosaemia (galactose indigestion disorder). Inform your doctor if you have diabetes, or if you are due to undergo a colonoscopy. Chronic use of unadjusted doses or misuse of Emty Solution may cause diarrhoea and electrolyte imbalance, therefore take it only as advised by the doctor.
