erceflora(bacillus clausii) vial ## Erceflora is commonly used to help treat or prevent diarrhea/loose stool. What information are you looking for? You can learn more about it here: ## indication, mechanism of action, contraindication,adverse effect of erceflora ## what is the generic of erceflora and their side effects and what is the route? ## So I haven't seen anywhere anyone say, how often this Enceflora can be taken. It comes with five vials in a package, but how many packages can be consumed in say a month. Or at what kind of intervals should it be taken.

erceflora was given IV possible outcome on the person long time side effect ## Should Erceflora be inadvertently given intravenously , we can expect some hypersensitivity reactions (chills, low grade fever, etc) soon after the administration. We have not encountered any reaction worse than these. Our recommendation is to give supportive treatment to the patient (antipyretic for fever, rest, etc) while continuing to observe him for any other possible reactions. There is no antidote. ## That is correct, the adverse events and possible side effects are not known for this. It is normally used to treat chronic cases of diarrhea that have lasted longer than 14 days. The normal dosing is 2-3 vials of the 5billion/5ml suspension for adults and 1-2 vials of the same for children. Is there anythi...

My 16 months baby has had diarrhea from 16th July to today's date. After eating his food 4 times daily the stool color is sometimes yellow greenish, sometimes brown with mucus. At night he is not sleeping properly and making some sounds and getting up. From the 16th as per the Dr I started z & d suspension but there has been no improvement. On the 20th again I went for a checkup and he prescribed bacillus clausii 2 times a day. After starting bacillus clausii erceflora he is passing yellow greenish stool. And here is his stool evaluation report: Mucus- positive++ Bacteria- present Pus cell-6/8 Apart from that everything is normal. Is this OK or should we consult a doctor? Please help.

contarindications of erceflora ## Erceflora is a form of bacillus clausii, it is a bacterium that in some countries is used as a medication to help with severe, chronic diarrhea. However, since it is not classified as a medication in the U.S. the information we have on it is very limited and I am afraid I am unable to help with your questions. There are some reference links here that might help you to learn more: Are there any questions or comments?

My 4 month old baby has diarrhea. The pediatrician has prescribed to take Erceflora 1 vial. What does that mean? Is this the whole vial at once? ## Hi Maine, sorry to hear about that, I know how nerve wracking it can be when a child at that young of an age has diarrhea. To answer your question, each vial should be a 5ml suspension. If that is the case then I am seeing a standard dose of 1-2 vials every 3-4 hours mixed in with another liquid such as milk, formula, or water. If you are still breastfeeding your baby you can mix it in with expelled breast milk. So yeah, 1 whole vial per dose is what is indicated. Is that in line with the doctor's instructions? There should be a label, printout, or packaging that came with the prescription. All in all Erceflora is a probiotic medicine wh...

I have used erceflora for my kids, ages 10, 5 and 3 whenever they get stomach flu as pescribed by their pediatrician. Erceflora has been prescribed by several pediatricians that I have consulted.

I was hospitalized for 3 days (Aug. 28th-31st) due to gastro/diarrhea. In the hospital the doctor gave me the following: 1. Seven vials of Erceflora 2. Three (100ml) vials of Levofloxacin 500mg 3. Four tabs of (40mg) Omeprazole. Because I felt itchiness on Levofloxacin, the doctor gave me 2 (500mg) tabs of Metronidazole. For home medication the doctor prescripted the following: 1. Metronidazole - 3x5 days = 15 2. Omeprazole - 1x5 days = 5 3. Erceflora - 3x3 days = 9 I feel dizzy, sometimes vomiting. I don't feel normal just yet. I already consumed the following take-home medications: 1. Metronidazole - 10 (5 left) 2. Omeprazole - 3 (2 left) 3. Erceflora - 5 (4 left) Can I stop or discontinue taking the medicine? Please help! Thanks.

all the necessary information in making drug study about ercefuryl ## I am sorry, I don't understand what you are asking, are you wanting to see a drug study on it, or do you want to know how to do one of your own? Ercerfuryl contains the active ingredient Nifuroxazide, this is an antibiotic, most commonly used in Hong Kong to treat Colitis and Diarrhea. It should not be used with the vaccine for Typhoid, as it can reduce its effectiveness. I can't find a lot of information on it, but here's the link to one small bit of study info: Click Here Is there anything else I can help you with? ## Can erceflora and ercefuryl be taken at the same time by a child age 6years old?
