Medicinal Benefits:

Zedotrax Capsule belongs to a group of medications called 'antidiarrheal' used to treat symptoms of acute (short-term) diarrhoea in infants and children over 3 months of age. Zedotrax Capsule contains 'Racecadotril', a prodrug (inactive form) that gets converted into 'thiorphan' (active form) which reduces the watery secretions produced by the intestine. It helps in decreasing the loss of fluid from the body, thus reducing the symptoms of diarrhoea and the risk of dehydration.
