Официально разрешенными  показаниями  к  её назначению в Российской Федерации служат: функциональный запор (в том числе у детей, лиц пожилого и старческого возраста, беременных и женщин в послеродовом периоде),  обстипационный вариант синдрома раздраженного кишечника, необходимость смягчения консистенции кала  при геморрое и трещинах заднего прохода,  после операций на толстой кишке и аноректальной области, а также печеночная энцефалопатия.  Другие показания  включают в себя подготовку к колоноскопии, лечение и профилактику  нарушений состава кишечной микробиоты, профилактику   запоров у онкологических больных, получающих наркотические анальгетики, а  также  у пациентов, находящихся на искусственной вентиляции легких.  </p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение.  Лактулоза является высокоэффективным и безопасным препаратом,  сочетающим  осмотический слабительный эффект с активным пребиотическим действием, широко применяющимся в повседневной клинической практике.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Aim of  the publication</title><p>Aim of  the publication.

Lactulose is a synthetic disaccharide belonging to the class of osmotic laxatives. Officially  permitted indications for its appointment in Russian Federation are functional constipation (including in children, the elderly and senile, pregnant women and women in postpartum period), an obstipation type of irritable bowel syndrome, the need to soften the consistency of feces in hemorrhoids and anal fissures, after operations on the colon and anorectal area,   as well as hepatic encephalopathy.  Other  indications include preparation for colonoscopy, treatment and prevention of disorders of the intestinal microbiota, prevention  of constipation in oncological  patients receiving narcotic analgesics, as well as patients on artificial lung ventilation.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. Lactulose is a highly effective  and safe drug, which combines osmotic laxative effect with expressed prebiotic action and is used in a wide clinical practice.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>лактулоза</kwd><kwd>функциональный  запор</kwd><kwd>обстипационный вариант синдрома раздраженного кишечника</kwd><kwd>печеночная энцефалопатия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>lactulose</kwd><kwd>functional constipation</kwd><kwd>obstipation type of irritable bowel syndrome</kwd><kwd>hepatic encephalopathy</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Pranami D., Sharma R., Pathak H.
