About Amicline Tablet

Amicline Tablet belongs to the class of 'antiprotozoal’ primarily used to treat worm infections like an intestinal worm and intestinal amebiasis (amoebic dysentery). One of the most important causes of stomachache in children is an intestinal infection which is mostly affected by intestinal parasites like worms.

On the other hand, amebiasis or amoebic dysentery is an intestinal disease caused by the protozoal organism known as ‘Entamoeba histolytica’.

Amicline Tablet contains ‘diloxanide’ that acts against intestinal (lumen) amoeba that forms cysts. The intestine poorly absorbs Amicline Tablet and so remains in the intestine at a very high concentration. It interferes with the enzymes required for the formation of the cell wall and amoeba's survival in the intestine. thereby destroying its outer cell wall (cyst) layer and killing amoeba.
