HIDRASEC RACECADOTRIL 100MG/LACTOSE 41MG 20’S

Hidrasec, containing the active ingredient racecadotril, is primarily used to treat acute diarrhea in adults and children. It works as an antisecretory agent, reducing the excessive secretion of fluids in the intestines, which helps to alleviate diarrhea symptoms without affecting the normal intestinal motility. Racecadotril is particularly beneficial because it does not interfere with the absorption of nutrients and does not cause constipation, making it a preferred choice for managing diarrhea.

In addition to treating acute diarrhea, Hidrasec can also be used as an adjunct therapy in cases of chronic diarrhea, particularly when the underlying cause is known. It is important to note that Hidrasec should not be used in cases of diarrhea caused by bacterial infections or in patients with severe dehydration. The typical dosage is 100 mg, and it is often available in packs of 20 capsules, making it convenient for short-term treatment.
