About Axioff OZR Suspension
Axioff OZR Suspension belongs to the class of medicines called ‘antidiarrheal’, used to treat diarrhoea that occurs due to infections. Diarrhoea is a condition in which bowel movements are too frequent, leading to loose and watery stools. In general, infection of the digestive tract is the common cause of diarrhoea. Different types of bacteria can cause infection.
Axioff OZR Suspension contains Ofloxacin, Ornidazole, and Racecadotril, which work by decreasing the amount of salts and fluids secreted into the intestine, thereby making the stools less watery and helping control diarrhoea. Together, Axioff OZR Suspension helps in treating bacterial infections.
You should take this medicine exactly as the doctor prescribed it. The common side effects of Axioff OZR Suspension are nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, bloating, dizziness, headaches, and photosensitivity (sensitivity to the sun). These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if any of these side effects persist or get worse, inform your doctor immediately.
