Product Introduction
Visbiome capsule contains an active component of probiotics comprising 112.5 billion CFU of lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria. It is effective in treating a range of digestive conditions. This medication has been shown to reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, including abdominal pain, cramping, bloating, and diarrhoea or constipation. It can help prevent and treat antibiotic-associated diarrhoea, which is a common adverse effect of antibiotic therapy. It can help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms in patients with ulcerative colitis. This medication can help prevent and treat pouchitis, an inflammation of the ileal pouch, which is a surgically created pouch that remains after colonic removal. It can help improve cognitive function and reduce the risk of hospitalisation in patients with hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disease complication. Do not use if you are hypersensitive to any of the ingredients in Visbiome capsule. It should be avoided in cases of severe acute pancreatitis and severely damaged gastrointestinal tract. Antibiotics may inactivate the live bacteria in this medication. It is recommended to wait at least 4 hours after taking antibiotics before taking this medication. It should also be used with caution in patients taking antibiotics and in those with weakened immune systems. Older adults may be more susceptible to infections from the live bacteria in this medication. It is important to start with a low dose of this medication and increase the dose gradually as tolerated. It is safe for children over the age of 3 years to take.
