Isablac

Isablac Powder is used to relieve chronic or occasional constipation and help maintain regular bowel movements. It works by softening stools and improving their bulk, making them easier to pass.

Individuals should not take Isablac Powder if they are allergic to lactulose, ispaghula (psyllium husk), or any ingredient present in it, have a blocked intestine (bowel obstruction), severe dehydration, galactose intolerance, phenylketonuria (a rare disorder where the body cannot process certain amino acids), or unexplained stomach pain or rectal bleeding.

Serious side effects of Isablac Powder include severe diarrhea, persistent vomiting, muscle cramps or weakness, irregular heartbeat, confusion, or allergic reactions like rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing. These may signal dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, or allergy.

Long-term use of Isablac Powder can be safe under medical supervision, but regular checkups and possible blood tests are needed, especially for elderly or debilitated patients, to prevent complications like electrolyte imbalance or dehydration.

Isablac Powder is often used for elderly adults under medical advice and is not recommended for children unless prescribed by a doctor. Always follow age-specific dosing and guidance.
