Lactulose is natural sugar which very sweet and viscous in nature ,where as lactitol is sythesised so not very sweet it has greater palletibility.lactitol is more effective in case of bowel movement compared to lactulose.lactitol has low calorie and lower glycemic compared to lactulose.lactitol can be taken for longer duration where as lactulose for shorter duration. Thats why lactitol has lesser side effects and better efficacy compared to lactulose. Regards tauseef dr.reddys's lab ltd. Mob-9336059135
Lactulose cannot, by itself, cause bleeding.
lactulose is manufactured by enzymatic isomerization of lactose.
Very little of lactulose is digested. It won't add to weight gain.
Lactulose has an overly sweet taste but does not taste like coconut.
There is no effect on a developing fetus and, in fact, lactulose is often prescribed for pregnant women.
No, it does not.
no
It is because of the process they use to manufacture it. However, you can get lactulose in a powdered form. I believe is is called Kristalose.
