Adverse Reactions

Abdominal distention or cramp and flatulence have occurred. Most frequently, these effects are more prevalent during the first 10 days of treatment and tend to subside on continued administration. Other less frequent side effects include abdominal discomfort, nausea, dyspepsia, epigastric pain, urgency of defecation, borborygmi or anal pruritus and vomiting in rare cases.
Diarrhea occurs generally with excessive doses of lactitol but some experience diarrhea at the recommended dosage. A reduction in dosage will overcome this problem. Severe flatulence, nausea and epigastric pain have occasionally necessitated withdrawal of lactitol therapy. Absorption of lactate resulting from colonic metabolism of Lactitol can potentially result in acid-base disturbances. Diarrhea induced by lactitol can be associated with hypokalemia and hypernatremia.
