Portolac EPS 200 g powder for oral solution
Lactitol monohydrate
What it is and what it is used for
Portolac EPS contains the active substance lactitol monohydrate, which belongs to a group of medicines called antidotes, which act by preventing the production and absorption in the intestine of some toxic substances, including ammonia.
Portolac EPS is indicated:
• in the prevention and treatment, both in the acute and stable phase, of alterations in brain function due to insufficient liver function (portosystemic encephalopathy), which causes accumulation of certain toxic substances.
• in the prevention and treatment of precoma and hepatic coma, caused by the most severe forms of portosystemic encephalopathy.
• in the treatment of severe liver disease (liver cirrhosis).
What you need to know before taking the medicine
Do not take Portolac EPS
• if you are allergic to lactitol monohydrate or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
• if you suffer from reduced intestinal transit (for example intestinal blockage, etc.)
• if you have or think you have a bowel injury
• if you have any stomach pain that you don't know the cause of
• if you have rectal bleeding
• if you suffer from hydro-electrolytic imbalance (alteration of the concentrations of liquids and salts present in the body)
• if you suffer from an intolerance to galactose (a type of sugar).
Do not give Portolac EPS to breast-fed children and children with intolerance to fructose (a type of sugar).
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Portolac EPS.
Consult your doctor:
• if you need to undergo electrocautery procedures (a medical procedure used to remove pieces of tissue) in your intestine
• if you experience nausea or flatulence (gas in the stomach)
• if you have had an ileostomy or colostomy (surgical techniques that allow an opening in the belly that allows faeces to be eliminated to the outside)
• if your doctor has diagnosed an intolerance to some sugars
• if you are elderly and/or debilitated and need to take Portolac EPS for a long time, as your doctor may want to regularly check the levels of salts in your blood.
It is important to treat any hydro-electrolytic imbalance (alteration of the concentrations of fluids and salts present in the body) before starting treatment with a laxative.
To avoid the occurrence of diarrhea, the physician should try to determine the optimal dosage at the beginning of treatment to achieve two bowel movements per day in patients with cirrhosis.
Lactitol has a negligible caloric value (2 kcal/g or 8.5 kJ/g) and has no effect on insulinemia or blood glucose levels and can therefore be administered to diabetic patients.
Children
In children and infants, use Portolac EPS only if recommended by your doctor.
Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
At the beginning of treatment, Portolac EPS may cause abdominal discomfort, especially with the release of gas from the intestine, and rarely abdominal pain or sometimes abdominal swelling. These effects tend to decrease or disappear after a few days of regular intake of Portolac EPS.
The doctor may decide to reduce the dosage in case of diarrhea.
The following side effects may occur with the following frequency:
Rare (may affect up to 1 in 1,000 people)
• vomit
• diarrhea
• stomach pain
• bloating of the belly
• gas production from the intestine
Very rare (may affect up to 1 in 10,000 people)
