• Diarrhea

  The dosage of lactulose for chronic idiopathic constipation is adjusted depending on the constipation severity and desired effect, from a mild stool softener to causing diarrhea. [en.wikipedia.org]

  Severe diarrhea may lead to hypovolemia, hypokalemia, and hypernatremia, especially in elderly or acutely ill patients. If diarrhea develops, the dosage should be reduced. [drugs.com]

  If initial dose causes diarrhea, reduce dose immediately; discontinue if diarrhea persists. Contraindications: Patients who require a low galactose diet. [empr.com]

  […] difficile (5), chronic diarrhea and malnutrition (6), and infectious diarrhea (7). [scielo.br]

• Pneumoperitoneum

  The increased gas pressure caused extravasation of air into the intestine, causing PI with pneumoperitoneum. They both resolved with discontinuation of lactulose. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
