Medical Description
Econorm 250 mg Capsule contains Saccharomyces boulardii, a beneficial yeast probiotic that helps maintain the balance of microorganisms in the intestines. It supports the growth of healthy intestinal microbes and helps restore the natural balance of gut flora, which may be disturbed during diarrhoea or antibiotic treatment. It may help manage certain types of diarrhoea, including antibiotic-associated diarrhoea, as recommended by a doctor.
Take Econorm 250 mg capsule at the dose and for the duration advised by your doctor. Swallow the capsule as directed, and do not exceed the recommended dose. If you are taking antibiotics, ask your doctor or pharmacist about the best time to take Econorm. Avoid mixing the contents with very hot food or drinks, as heat may affect the yeast. This medicine may not be suitable for people with severely weakened immune systems or those who are critically ill or have a central venous catheter; consult your doctor before use in these situations.
Possible side effects may include gas, bloating or constipation, although many people tolerate the medicine well. If diarrhoea persists, worsens or is accompanied by blood in the stool, high fever, severe abdominal pain or signs of dehydration, seek medical advice promptly. Drink adequate fluids to help prevent dehydration during diarrhoea. Econorm is not a substitute for fluid and electrolyte replacement when needed.
