Good morning, I have been taking dalacin c for 6 days and I have diarrhea for three days. It uses enterol 2×1 and multilac. Can I take smecta? Diarrhea is not very persistent 1 time per day. Best regards.

The use of the drug Smecta is not indicated in this case - from the description it is not acute diarrhea, nor functional diarrhea, and drug-induced in a mild form. Taking this drug can do more harm than good in this case. Due to its structure and high viscosity, Smecta has strong coating properties of the gastrointestinal mucosa, showing antidiarrheal activity. The adsorption properties of this medicine may affect the rate and/or degree of absorption of other substances, e.g. an antibiotic, therefore no other medicine should be given at the same time as diosmectite. A 2-hour break is recommended between taking Smecta and other medications.
