Hi everyone: My mom and I found a great recipe for getting the lactulose down. She takes 60mL of lactulose ( double dose), we add equal parts cranberry /rasp juice (diet cuz she's diabetic) and squeeze in a half of a fresh lemon or sometimes we just use the lemon juice you can buy in those squeeze lemon shaped containers. Anyway, ever since we stumbled onto the lemon, she has had no problems tolerating it. Just thought I would share.

Hey Natasha, That's a good little concoction you guys made up. Thanks for sharing. My last prescription for Lactulose came as "GENERLAC", A generic form of lactulose. Doesn't have that horrible taste but it's still thick as syrup.

Hi Natasha, Themister (my guy) has no problem sucking down the Lactulose, but many have added it to smoothies. Thanks for the tip! Care to join in and tell us a bit about your Mom? Welcome...big hugs

I put lemon put in when I juice. You can use one lemon to cover up the taste of kale which is the vegetable with highest concentration of vitamin K. My INR is always about 1.3 or 1.4,,when I eat kale in my juices daily my INR is normal.

Most people do not do this but I eat entire lemons though like an orange, so good. Covers up everything.
