About Diasis Syrup

Diasis Syrup is a combination medicine used to treat bacterial and protozoal infections, including giardiasis, amebiasis, and enteritis in children. Additionally, it helps manage infectious diarrhoea caused by bacteria or protozoa. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect our bodies. Diarrhoea is characterised by the passage of frequent, loose motions.

Diasis Syrup contains furazolidone and metronidazole. Furazolidone works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering that is important for the survival of bacteria. Metronidazole kills bacteria and other microorganisms by damaging their DNA. Collectively, Diasis Syrup helps treat infections.
