  2. Since Lactulose contains lactose (<1.2g/15mL) it should be used with caution in patients with lactose intolerance.
  3. Use in pregnancy and lactation: Reproduction studies in rats and teratologic experiments in both mice and rats did not reveal significant effects on conception, gestation, litter size, or incidence of malformations.
