Guest guest Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Did you have a lot of liver damage going into treatment, Mel..? I have to wonder if they don't mess up our systems further by all of the medications that they give.. Especially, since everything we take has to filter through the liver..

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Lactalose is to get rid of the ammonia that builds up in your intestines and goes to your brain which gives you confusion. (encephalpathy). They adjust Lactulose to each individual person, it usually isn't based on ammonia levels in your blood, they do it as per your confusion levels. Proteins should be gone out of your diet as they cause a great amount of ammonia, a dietician is a really good bet when you deal with ammonia. Latulose is a sugar based syrup that gives you bowel movements to lower ammonia levels. It's a very good thing to use if adjusted to you properly, your doctor should be reccomending a certain amount of bowel movements a day depending upon your ammonia level and or confusrion. Hope that explains Lactulose.
