• Treatment of Diarrhea
• Treatment of Dysentery

Treatment of Diarrhea
Diarrhea is a condition in which you frequently pass loose, watery stools. Noxagyl DL Suspension helps treat diarrhea by killing the bacteria causing infections as well as prevents them from multiplying. Noxagyl DL Suspension makes the stool less watery as well as reduces the frequency of loose motions. It also restores the level of good bacteria in your stomach and thus prevents stomach upset due to the antibiotics. This helps you to stay well and do your daily activities without any problem. Since diarrhea causes loss of fluid from the body, drink plenty of fluids to make sure you stay hydrated.

Treatment of Dysentery
Dysentery is a bacterial or parasitic infection in which you pass loose and watery stools with blood and mucus. You may have severe stomach cramps, nausea, and vomiting. Noxagyl DL Suspension works by stopping the growth of bacteria and parasites causing infection. It relieves these symptoms and also helps you to stay well by preventing them from coming back. In order to prevent the spread of infection, it is advisable to always wash your hands after using the toilet.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
