Diet & Lifestyle Advise

It would be best to take probiotics after taking the full course of Dazole Suspension to restore healthy bacteria in the intestine that may have been killed. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods, such as yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, and kimchi, can help restore the intestines' good bacteria.
Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Whole grains, such as whole-grain bread and brown rice, should be included in the diet.
Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages with Dazole Suspension as it can make you dehydrated and affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to help Dazole Suspension fight off infections.
If you have diarrhoea, drink appropriate amounts of fluids to avoid dehydration.
