How Santolac R Products work
Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus is a combination of three medicines: Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus1, Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus2 and Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus3 which reduce symptoms of diarrhoea in children. Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus1 has an anti-secretory effect. It reduces the secretion of water and electrolytes from the intestine. This helps to reduce the amount of fluid loss from the body in diarrhoea. Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus2 and Racecadotril + Saccharomyces boulardii + Lactobacillus3 are live microorganisms which restore the balance of good bacteria in the intestine that may get upset due to intestinal infections.

Frequently asked questions about Santolac R Products
Q. How long does Santolac R Sachet take to work?
Treatment with Santolac R Sachet should be continued until two normal stools are passed. However, if diarrhea does not get better after seven days of treatment you must talk to the doctor. Make sure neither to extend nor to stop the treatment by yourself without consulting your child’s doctor. Doing so may have side effects or may lead to a recurrence of symptoms.
Q. My child is one year old and is suffering from a neurological disorder. Is it safe to give Santolac R Sachet?
Usually, Santolac R Sachet does not enter into the central nervous system and lacks the potential to cause serious side effects such as neurotoxicity. But, since children below the age of 2 have underdeveloped membranes, there could be a chance of the medicine entering the brain and causing side effects. So, consult your child’s doctor before giving Santolac R Sachet in such a condition.
Q. My child is passing watery stools mixed with blood and is also suffering from fever. Is Santolac R Sachet the right choice of treatment?
No, do not give Santolac R Sachet if your child is passing stools mixed with blood or pus along with having a high body temperature (fever). These symptoms are indicative of some underlying pathology (infection) and may require some other line of treatment.
Q. My child is suffering from long-term (chronic) diarrhea. Can I give Santolac R Sachet?
The use of Santolac R Sachet in chronic diarrhea has not been sufficiently studied. Therefore, it is best to consult your child’s doctor before giving this medicine to your child for long-term diarrhea.
Q. What other medicines should my child avoid while taking Santolac R Sachet?
Although Santolac R Sachet is not known to cause any interaction with other medicines, you should inform the doctor if your child is taking any medicine. It is best to narrate the complete medical history of your child as this will help the doctor understand your child’s needs better.
