About Ad 10 Sachet

AD 10 Sachet 1 gm belongs to a group of medications called antidiarrheal. It treats acute diarrhoea symptoms in adults and infants over 3 months of age. AD 10 Sachet 1 gm can be administered as a complementary treatment when acute diarrhoea cannot be treated casually.

Acute diarrhoea is a sudden onset of 3 or more loose/watery stools per day for at least 14 days.

AD 10 Sachet 1 gm contains Racecadotril, a prodrug (inactive form) that gets converted into thiorphan (active form), which acts on the epithelium tissues of the small intestine. It decreases intestinal hypersecretion (losing) of electrolytes and water induced by the cholera toxin or inflammation.

Thus, AD 10 Sachet 1 gm exerts rapid antidiarrheal action, without changing the duration of intestinal transit (bowel transit time or time of food travel in the digestive tract).
