About Duphalac Syrup

Vomiting, loose stools, acidity and gas are some of the most common reasons a pet needs a vet.

Duphalac Syrup is a human oral syrup from Abbott that contains lactulose. Lactulose is a gentle laxative.

It is made for people. Vets sometimes prescribe it for pets, for example for constipation and liver related brain signs. Give it to your pet only if your vet has prescribed it.
