VIZYLAC Powder

VIZYLAC is a brand of probiotic supplements that comes in various forms, including Powder (often available in sachets or as a dry syrup to be reconstituted).

Here is a general description, focusing on the Powder/Sachet forms:

• Type of Medicine: It is a probiotic and sometimes a prebiotic-probiotic combination. This means it contains beneficial live microorganisms (like Lactic Acid Bacillus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, or a combination of various bacteria and/or yeast) intended to help maintain or restore the natural balance of microflora in the gut.
• Key Ingredient (Commonly): The active ingredient in many VIZYLAC formulations (like Vizylac Dry Syrup or Vizylac Capsule) is often Lactic Acid Bacillus or in other variants like Vizylac GG, it is Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Other variants like Vizylac Rich may contain a combination of multiple probiotics and prebiotics.
• Primary Uses:
  • Treating and preventing various types of Diarrhoea, including:
    • Acute infectious diarrhoea.
    • Diarrhoea associated with antibiotic use (Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhoea).
    • Traveller’s diarrhoea.
  • Restoring Intestinal Flora: It helps replenish the “good” bacteria in the intestines that might be disrupted by illness, infections, or medications (especially antibiotics).
  • Supporting Digestive Health: It is used to relieve symptoms of other digestive issues like:
    • Indigestion
    • Bloating and flatulence
    • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms
  • Boosting Intestinal Immunity: A healthy gut flora contributes to a strong immune system.
• Common Side Effects (Usually Mild): Generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience mild gastrointestinal symptoms like bloating or gas (flatulence).
• Form (Powder/Sachet): The powder or granules in the sachet are typically mixed with a small amount of lukewarm water, a cool drink, or soft food (like applesauce for children) and consumed orally, as directed by a healthcare professional.

Important Note: The exact formulation (ingredients and strength) and specific uses can vary depending on the specific VIZYLAC product (e.g., Vizylac GG Sachet, Vizylac Rich Sachet, Vizylac Dry Syrup). Always consult the product packaging or a healthcare professional for specific information, dosage instructions, and to ensure it is the right medication for your condition.
