This is a medicine used to treat diarrhea. It helps with stomach pain, cramps, and loose stools that come with diarrhea. It also makes it easier for gas to pass through, which reduces stomach discomfort.
It works in two ways: one part of the medicine slows down the intestines, making the stools more solid and less frequent. The other part, simethicone, breaks up gas bubbles so they can move out of your body easily.
The amount of medicine you take depends on your condition and how you react to it. Before using it, you should tell your doctor if youre pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or breastfeeding. Also, inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems so they can give you the right dose. If you have any allergic reactions like red skin or rashes, contact your doctor right away.
