What is the medicine Acipol for?
Indications for use can be found in the instructions. But this does not mean that a person can determine for himself the advisability of using the drug. Before your appointment, it is recommended to consult with a specialist who can prescribe an individual treatment regimen.
The medication is prescribed for various types of inflammatory reactions in the intestinal area. Such reactions include: dysentery, salmonellosis, adenoviral infections. Acipol is also prescribed for colitis. This medicine is used to treat dysbiosis.
Other indications include the need for long-term antibacterial treatment. The medicine is often used by people with weak immune systems. Acipol has proven itself well in correcting the condition of babies who were born prematurely. The drug is given to correct the gastrointestinal tract. It is in infancy that children often experience gas formation and pain in the abdomen.
Basic information
Acipol regulates the balance of intestinal microflora. Dosage form – capsules, which have the following composition:
- live acidophilus bacteria;
- Tibetan kefir grain polysaccharides;
- gelatin;
- food additive E172;
- titanium dioxide.
The drug contains probiotics (live lactobacilli) and prebiotics (polysaccharides). After penetration into the intestines, bacteria are activated and begin to multiply, in which they are actively helped by prebiotics, which are a nutrient substrate for them.
Therapeutic effect of lactobacilli:
- The bacteria are effective against Shigella, Proteus, pathogenic E. coli, Salmonella, etc. They destroy pathogens, as a result, the symptoms of dysbiosis and intestinal infections disappear.
- Bacteria produce lactate, reduce intestinal acidity, creating favorable conditions for representatives of the natural bacterial flora and negative conditions for harmful microorganisms.
- After normalization of the intestinal bacterial flora, the production and absorption of elements of group B, K, etc. is restored.
- The concentration of bilirubin and cholesterol in the blood plasma is normalized.
- Thanks to its general strengthening effect, the body becomes more resistant to infections.
- Lactobacilli break down glucose, galactose, lactose and other disaccharides.
With regular use of the drug, digestion improves, dyspeptic symptoms disappear (nausea, heartburn, bloating, etc.). Thanks to the action of bifidobacteria, intestinal motility is restored and stool is normalized.
Acipol is prescribed in the following cases:
- Constipation (chronic constipation) due to decreased intestinal motility;
- Acute poisoning, which is accompanied by diarrhea;
- Infectious intestinal diseases (for example, salmonellosis, shigellosis);
- Inflammation of the small and large intestine;
- Dysbacteriosis after taking antibacterial drugs;
- Frequent diseases of infectious and viral origin;
- Dermatitis;
- Poor nutrition.
The drug is taken for chronic recurrent diseases of the digestive tract and respiratory system.
How to use the medicine
Only a specialist can establish a drug treatment regimen. Treatment options depend on the severity of the problem and how the disease progresses. The capsule does not need to be cracked, but swallowed whole and washed down with plenty of drinking water.
If the patient has an acute intestinal disease, then you need to drink 4 capsules per day 25 minutes before meals. The average duration of the treatment course is a week. It is not recommended to take longer than 10 days, while other probiotics are used for a long time. This is a significant advantage of the composition.
Patients claim that the capsules are very convenient and easy to take, they are not large in size.

How to take Acipol for children

A child from 3 years of age is prescribed 3-4 capsules per day, preferably 30 minutes before meals. The medicine has many positive reviews for constipation in children. The composition of the drug is completely safe, has no toxic effect, and is perfectly absorbed by the body.
special instructions
Acipol is prohibited from being used only in two cases - in case of hypersensitivity to the main or auxiliary components of the drug or individual lactose intolerance. To learn how to identify the symptoms and treat milk sugar intolerance in a baby, read the link.
Patients with thrush take the drug under the supervision of a doctor, as the risk of exacerbation of the disease increases.
Side effects may occur if the dosage is violated or if there is hypersensitivity to the drug, in which case an allergy manifests itself in the form of rash, itching, and nettle fever.
There is no information about cases of overdose. Acipol is recommended to be consumed together with fermented milk products.
When taking Acipol and antibiotics together, the therapeutic effect of the former is reduced, since the latter inhibit the development of beneficial bacteria. That is why the probiotic is taken after treatment with antibacterial drugs.
When treating younger patients, the powder from the capsule is diluted with water or milk. It is important to monitor the temperature of the liquid; it should not exceed the patient’s body temperature, otherwise the beneficial bacteria will die. According to the instructions, the drug is not prohibited from being taken during pregnancy and lactation.
How the drug works
After administration, the medicine enters the patient’s intestines. The composition contains beneficial bacteria that negatively affect harmful microbes. As a result, the drug destroys pathogenic microflora, enriching the intestines with essential elements. Acipol improves the digestion process and normalizes stool. In addition, the constituent elements have an immunomodulatory effect, as a result of which the body’s resistance to harmful microorganisms increases.
Acipol for nursing mothers
According to doctors, Acipol is safe for lactating women, since it contains beneficial bacteria, as well as kefir grain metabolites. The active ingredients are not dangerous to the health of the newborn. Therefore, Acipol is allowed to be taken while breastfeeding, but only after consulting a doctor.
The drug should not be used only if you are hypersensitive to its components. Breastfeeding should not be stopped during treatment.
Thus, Acipol is allowed to be taken by lactating women for medical reasons.
A nursing mother should monitor the condition of her newborn during probiotic treatment. Excessive use is contraindicated, as the baby may develop allergy symptoms. If they occur, stop taking the medicine and consult a doctor. Subscribe to our VKontakte group
