Ofem Plus Tablet Substitute

Ofem Plus Tablet is an antibacterial medication primarily used to treat diarrhoea and dysentery caused by infections. It also helps prevent or treat various other conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, intra-abdominal infections, recurrent infections caused by Clostridium difficile, and postoperative infections

Ofem Plus Tablet contains four active ingredients: Lactobacillus, Ofloxacin, Ornidazole, and Saccharomyces boulardii. Lactobacillus and Saccharomyces boulardii are probiotics that help restore good bacteria while preventing the growth of harmful bacteria in the gut. Ofloxacin is an antibiotic that kills bacteria by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme (DNA gyrase) required by bacteria for replicating and repairing its genetic material (DNA). Ornidazole is an antiprotozoal/antibiotic that kills bacteria and parasites by inhibiting protein synthesis and damaging their DNA, leading to cell death. Together, Ofem Plus Tablet effectively treats diarrhoea and dysentery by clearing the infections in the stomach and intestines.

Ofem Plus Tablet may cause common side effects such as gas, bloating, constipation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach pain, headache, and dizziness. Most of these side effects will gradually resolve over time without requiring medical attention. However, if you experience any of these side effects persistently, please consult your doctor.

Ofem Plus Tablet should not be taken with antacids or medications containing iron or zinc at the same time. You should maintain a gap of 2 hours between the two medications.

Consult your doctor if you do not get better even after completing the course of treatment or if your condition worsens during treatment with Ofem Plus Tablet. Your doctor may adjust the dose or prescribe alternate medication based on your condition.
