Uses of DSS Capsule

Benefits of DSS Capsule

Treatment of Ulcerative colitis
Ulcerative colitis is a disease of the large intestine (colon) and rectum in which the lining of the bowel becomes red and swollen. This can lead to bleeding, frequent diarrhea and abdominal pain. DSS 112.5 Capsule contains beneficial bacteria that protect the inner layers of your stomach and intestines. It relieves these symptoms and also helps you stay well by preventing them from coming back. You need to take this medicine regularly to get the most out of it and you should drink plenty of fluids while taking it to make sure you stay hydrated.

Treatment of Irritable bowel syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional disorder characterised by abdominal pain, bloating, and altered bowel habits without mucosal inflammation or bleeding. DSS 112.5 Capsule can relieve these symptoms effectively. Continue taking DSS 112.5 Capsule for as long as the doctor may advise you to. To maximize the benefits of this medicine, take it consistently and ensure you drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated.

Frequently asked questions

Is DSS 112.5 Capsule a probiotic?

Yes, DSS 112.5 Capsule is a probiotic, the opposite of an antibiotic. Probiotics are “good bacteria” that help maintain digestive health and boost the immune system. Generally, probiotics are used in cases where the normal bacteria are killed due to some disease or medicine. For example, taking antibiotics can kill the disease-causing bacteria as well as normal bacteria present in the gastrointestinal tract. Hence, to counter such an imbalance of good bacteria, taking probiotics while you are on antibiotics can help.

Can DSS 112.5 Capsule cause diarrhea?

Generally, DSS 112.5 Capsule is considered safe when taken by mouth appropriately. However, in some people, it can cause an upset stomach, which may result in diarrhea, bloating, and flatulence (accumulation of gas).

How long should DSS 112.5 Capsule be taken?

Usually, full benefits with DSS 112.5 Capsule can be observed in one month. This is because a minimum of four weeks is required to allow the colonization of the gut by good bacteria to become stable. However, you need to keep a record of whether there is an improvement in your symptoms or not. The dose of the medicine should be taken as recommended by your doctor or the manufacturer.

Can I take antibiotic and probiotic at the same time?

Taking antibiotics along with DSS 112.5 Capsule might reduce the effectiveness of DSS 112.5 Capsule. To avoid this interaction, keep a minimum of a 2-hour gap (before or after) between the two.
