Overview ROKO Capsule

Roko capsules treat diarrhea, but are contraindicated in dysentery (bloody diarrhea). Dosage and duration should follow your physician's instructions; complete the prescribed course to prevent symptom recurrence and worsening. Inform your doctor of all other medications you're using, as interactions are possible. Headache, nausea, and constipation are common, generally transient side effects. Report any concerning side effects immediately. Dizziness is a potential adverse effect; avoid driving or activities requiring alertness until its impact is known. Alcohol should be avoided due to potential increased drowsiness. Maintain adequate hydration to counteract diarrhea-induced fluid and electrolyte loss. Do not use this medication if you have rectal bleeding or severe constipation.
