About Daneeof MZ Syrup

Daneeof MZ Syrup is a combination of antibacterial (ofloxacin) and anti-amoebic (metronidazole) medication used to treat various infections caused by bacteria. It is also effective in treating diarrhoea due to mixed infections and amoebic dysentery. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect our bodies. Diarrhoea is an increase in the frequency of bowel movements, resulting in loose and watery stools. Amoebic dysentery (Also Known as Amoebiasis) is an intestinal infection caused by the parasite Entamoeba histolytica.

Daneeof MZ Syrup is a combination of two antibiotics that include Ofloxacin and Metronidazole. Ofloxacin prevents the division of bacterial cells and inhibits their repair mechanism, leading to the death of the bacteria. Metronidazole kills parasites and anaerobic bacteria that cause infections. It works by damaging their DNA. Both antibiotics are bactericidal in nature and work together to effectively treat the infection.

Take Daneeof MZ Syrup exactly as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Daneeof MZ Syrup based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects, including nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, loss of appetite, dry mouth, a metallic taste, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and confusion. Most of these side effects of Daneeof MZ Syrup do not require medical attention and typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

It is not advisable to stop taking Daneeof MZ Syrup suddenly to avoid unpleasant side effects. The full course prescribed by the doctor should be completed.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Avoid consuming excessive amounts of caffeine-containing products, such as coffee, tea, energy drinks, cola, or chocolate. Daneeof MZ Syrup may increase nervousness, sleeplessness, and anxiety caused by caffeine.
  • Probiotics should be taken after completing the full course of Daneeof MZ Syrup to help restore healthy bacteria in the intestines 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, kombucha, and kimchi, can help restore the gut's beneficial bacteria.
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre-rich foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains, such as whole-grain bread and brown rice, should be included in your diet. Make sure to drink plenty of water or other fluids every day while you are taking Daneeof MZ Syrup.
  • Avoid the intake of alcoholic beverages, as they can make you dehydrated and may affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid the Daneeof MZ Syrup in fighting off infections.
