Santolac R Sachet

Overview Santolac R Sachet

Each Santolac R Sachet combines three active ingredients to alleviate acute diarrhea symptoms in infants and children. It works by diminishing stool water and electrolyte loss. This medication is typically administered when standard hydration and dietary adjustments are insufficient. Administer Santolac R Sachet orally to your child, with or without food, ideally alongside an oral rehydration solution (ORS). A usual dosage is three times daily, though adjustments are made based on the child's weight and age. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes, repeat the dose after your child recovers. Ensure your child maintains adequate fluid intake and a balanced diet. While mild, temporary side effects like headache, rash, or constipation may occur, they usually resolve spontaneously. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant immediate medical consultation. Inform your child's physician of any prior allergies, bowel obstructions, electrolyte imbalances, liver problems, or kidney dysfunction to facilitate appropriate treatment planning.

How Santolac R Sachet works:

Santolac R Sachets combine three active components: racecadotril, Saccharomyces boulardii, and Lactobacillus. Racecadotril acts by suppressing intestinal fluid secretion, thereby minimizing water and electrolyte loss associated with diarrhea. The probiotic strains, Saccharomyces boulardii and Lactobacillus, foster beneficial gut microbiota, enhancing intestinal well-being and reducing the risk of infection.

Stay calm. Administer the missed dose immediately upon recollection, unless your pediatrician instructs differently. Avoid doubling the dose to compensate for the missed one. If uncertain, contact your child's doctor for guidance.
