Description

Actiflor 250mg sachet is a highly effective probiotic supplement used to manage various gastrointestinal conditions. It contains Saccharomyces Boulardii, a yeast that works by restoring the natural balance of beneficial bacteria in the intestines. This product is commonly used to treat and prevent infectious and nonspecific diarrhea, including diarrhea caused by antibiotics or other medications. Additionally, Actiflor helps in the management of digestive issues such as colitis (inflammation of the large intestine) and candidiasis (fungal infection). It also provides relief for diarrhea resulting from nasogastric tube feeding.

Functions

Actiflor 250mg sachets primarily work by stabilizing and balancing gut flora. By introducing Saccharomyces Boulardii, it supports the digestive system, alleviates symptoms of diarrhea, and helps prevent the onset of more serious digestive disorders. Its probiotic action contributes to the healing of intestinal mucosa and supports the immune system. It also plays a role in reducing the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and restoring gut function in individuals suffering from gastrointestinal disturbances.

Precautions

Before using Actiflor, it is important to consult a healthcare provider, particularly for individuals with any allergies to its components. If any allergic reactions or severe side effects occur, discontinue use and seek medical attention immediately. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should exercise caution as the effects of Saccharomyces Boulardii on pregnancy and lactation are not well-documented. Always consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

Side Effects

While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild gastrointestinal discomfort, including bloating, gas, or abdominal pain. These side effects are typically transient and may subside as the body adjusts to the probiotic. If any severe or persistent symptoms occur, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Cautions

Actiflor should not be mixed with excessively hot or cold water as this may affect its efficacy. Keep the product out of the reach of children and store it in a cool, dry place or in the fridge, away from direct light and moisture. For individuals with a compromised immune system or those undergoing major surgeries, consult a doctor before use. Do not flush the product down the toilet; dispose of it according to your local waste disposal guidelines.
