Hylak-forte with constipation: instruction on how to use?

1 Pharmacological properties of the preparation

The intake of antibiotics adversely affects the intestinal microflora: tablets have a harmful effect not only on harmful microbes, but also on lactobacilli, which are vital for normal functioning of the intestine( the balance between normal and pathogenic microflora is disturbed).Irradiation, susceptibility to surgery create ideal conditions for the multiplication of microbes that contribute to the occurrence of flatulence. The development of pathogenic microflora is the main cause of constipation and indigestion, as well as a sense of gravity.

Hilak forte normalizes intestinal microflora, pH and water-electrolyte balance by stimulating the synthesis of epithelial cells in the intestinal wall.
