lactulose

we are currently disimpacting my daughter but due to autism/ARFID struggling to get meds in her.

We’re now on lactulose and Pico - is it okay to give lactulose throughout the day hidden in safe foods or does it have to be only twice? We’re struggling to get it in her unless it’s across 3/4 separate times in a day.

Thanks you

For advice on prescription medication, please consult with your GP or pharmacist. As long as you are not exceeding the maximum dosage prescribed, splitting the medication should be fine.
