How it works
Enterozol Tablet is a combination of four medicines: Simethicone, Dicyclomine, Diloxanide, and Tinidazole. Simethicone is an antifoaming medicine which disintegrates gas bubbles and allows easy passage of gas. Dicyclomine is an antispasmodic which works by relaxing the muscles in your stomach and gut (intestine). It stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms). Diloxanide is a luminal amoebicide which acts inside the intestines to kill the infection-causing microorganisms (amoeba). Tinidazole is an antibiotic which kills bacteria and other infectious microorganisms by damaging the DNA.
