Bifidumbacterin forte 5 doses 30 pcs. capsules
Composition and release form Bifidumbacterin forte 5 doses 30 pcs. capsules
One capsule contains:
- Active substance: bifidobacteria sorbed on activated carbon - at least 50 million colony-forming units (5x107 CFU);
- Excipient: lactose monohydrate - up to 0.20 g.
Description of the dosage form
Hard gelatin capsules, white capsule body, blue capsule cap. The contents of the capsules are a light gray to dark gray powder with black coal particles and possible beige inclusions with a faint sour milk odor.
Characteristic
The effect of the drug is due to the high concentration of bifidobacteria (Bifidobacterium bifidum) sorbed on activated carbon particles, which are antagonists of a wide range of pathogenic (Shigella, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.) and conditionally pathogenic microorganisms (Proteus, Klebsiella, etc.). Microcolonies of sorbed bifidobacteria ensure rapid restoration of normal microflora, which, being a natural biosorbent, accumulates significant amounts of toxic substances entering from the outside or formed in the body. Sorbed bifidobacteria activate restoration processes in the mucous membranes, parietal digestion, synthesis of vitamins and amino acids, and enhance the body's immune defense.

BIFIDUMBACTERIN FORTE (powder)
It was not clear whether it was Bifidumbacterin or not, because they were treated comprehensively.
As for its use in the hospital, it is prescribed constantly, whether there is loose stool or not, whether there is dysbacteriosis or not, it is prescribed to everyone in order to prevent the appearance. I can only say one thing: if the stool deteriorates from taking antibiotics, then, as I already wrote in the review about Amoxicillin, this may be a consequence of the wrong choice of the drug or its dose. It is enough to change the antibiotic and loose stools go away. And if you already have problems with your stool, then Bifidumbacketrin will not help, as there was diarrhea and remains the same until you stop injecting antibiotics. I don’t know about others, but this has been verified from our personal experience.
But still, let’s give this medicine a small chance, let’s assume that there is some effect, but it’s completely invisible to the eye)) Therefore, as they say, extra “correct” bacteria are not a hindrance to the intestines, so I always try to give Bifidumbacterin in the hospital, if only they give it out for free.
Bifidumbacterin looks like a white powder with black inclusions of activated carbon. All this is packed in special foil bags, several pieces per pack. Should only be stored in the refrigerator.
The most unpleasant thing about using this medicine is its dilution! The drug stubbornly refuses to dissolve in water. Even if you disturb him for an hour, it won’t do any good. Therefore, you have to shake it very, very strongly, and then, before the particles have time to settle, pour it into the child’s mouth. If the child is big, then this, as you understand, will not be much work. But if this is a baby under one year old, then you have to work hard. It is not always possible to put all the medicine into the mouth from a teaspoon; some of it spills down the collar, because the child actively shakes his head. I got used to taking a dosing syringe from Nurofen and using it to draw up diluted Bifidumbacterin, then squeezing it exactly into the child’s mouth, thus minimizing the loss of medicine. But there were problems with this too. It happened that you put Bifidumbacterin into this syringe, and while you squeeze the child so that it is convenient to pour it out and it is convenient to open his mouth, then all the particles of the medicine inside the syringe will settle, and when you squeeze it into the mouth, only water will pour out, and all the necessary particles of the medicine remain at the bottom of the syringe. This requires skill. I consider this a big disadvantage, because not only is it doubtful for me whether the drug helps or not, but it is also very inconvenient to give it.
Therefore, I don’t dare advise you to take it. Well, if they gave you such a remedy for free in the hospital, then try it, maybe you will like it and it will cause positive feedback from you personally. I have already made all the conclusions for myself.
