About Esivac 10Gm Solution 200Ml

Esivac 10Gm Solution 200Ml belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives used to treat constipation. Esivac 10Gm Solution 200Ml is also used to treat hepatic encephalopathy. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Hepatic encephalopathy is a liver disease which causes the accumulation of toxic substances in the bloodstream which are normally removed by the liver.

Esivac 10Gm Solution 200Ml contains 'lactulose' which works by absorbing water from the body and into the bowel. This softens stools and makes it easier to pass. Besides this, it also reduces the amount of ammonia in the blood of patients with liver disease by drawing ammonia from the blood into the colon, thereby facilitating the removal of toxins from the body.

You are advised to take Esivac 10Gm Solution 200Ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as diarrhoea, flatulence (wind), abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Constipation: It refers to infrequent bowel movements. The stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Constipation is a medical condition in which the person has fewer than three bowel movements in a week. However, bowel patterns may vary from person to person. Symptoms include bloating, abdominal pain, and feeling as if the bowel movement is incomplete. Constipation occurs when the normal muscle contractions in the large intestine slow down, which causes the incomplete elimination of the bowel from the body. Constipation could be associated with a sudden change of diet, a diet with less fibre, not drinking enough liquids, and lack of exercise.

    Hepatic encephalopathy: It is a liver/hepatic disease in which the liver does not remove the toxins from the body, which leads to loss of brain function. Hepatic encephalopathy causes confusion, tremor, decreased consciousness and coma.
