Verified Ingredients and Effects

Composition:

DILOXANIDE-500MG

Uses:

Treatment of Intestinal amebiasis (amoebic diarrhea) and intestinal worms.

Medicinal Benefits:

Amicline Tablet contains the antiprotozoal and amebicidal compound 'diloxanide.' Amicline Tablet is a worm infection treatment that is used to treat intestinal worms and intestinal amaebiasis (amoebic dysentery). It inhibits the growth of amoeba, which lives in our intestines and causes diarrhoea. Amicline Tablet is effective against amoeba that forms cysts in the intestine (lumen). Because the intestine absorbs Amicline Tablet poorly, it accumulates in the intestine at a high concentration. It inhibits the enzymes required for cell wall formation and amoeba survival in the intestine, destroying its outer cell wall (cyst) layer and killing the amoeba.
