FAQs
What is Lee Dott Capsule used for?
Lee Dott Capsule is used for the symptomatic treatment of acute diarrhea in adults. It is given as an add-on to dietary measures and oral rehydration, not as a replacement for them.
How does Lee Dott Capsule help in diarrhea?
Lee Dott Capsule helps reduce excess fluid loss from the intestines during acute diarrhoea. It decreases intestinal secretion of water and electrolytes, which helps control loose stools without slowing down normal bowel movement.

Yes. Lee Dott Capsule does not replace oral rehydration therapy. Adequate fluid and electrolyte replacement remains essential, especially in cases of dehydration.
When should Lee Dott Capsule not be used?
