About Netazox Syrup

Netazox Syrup belongs to the class of 'antiprotozoal and antiviral' drugs, primarily used to treat diarrhoea caused by parasite infections of the intestines (Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia). Netazox Syrup also treats protozoa infections caused by single-cell parasites that live in moist places like lakes, streams, and soil. Diarrhoea is a condition that causes the frequent passing of loose or watery stools.

Netazox Syrup contains Nitazoxanide, which belongs to the class of drugs known as thiazolides. Nitazoxanide is a broad-spectrum anti-parasitic medication. It inhibits the production of chemical substances required for energy metabolism and growth of protozoa, helminths (worm-like parasites), anaerobic (microbes that survive without oxygen), and microaerophilic (requires little oxygen to survive)  and viruses. Nitazoxanide is effective in the treatment of gastrointestinal infections.

Please take Netazox Syrup in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor based on your medical condition. Netazox Syrup is generally safe to use. However, some may experience side effects like nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, fever, hair loss, dizziness, giddiness, and headache. Most of these side effects of Netazox Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney diseases asthma, and weakened immune system before starting Netazox Syrup. If you are allergic to Netazox Syrup or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Do not suddenly stop this medicine to avoid unpleasant side effects and sudden withdrawal symptoms. Intake of probiotics, prebiotics, and plenty of fluids is recommended if you are suffering from diarrhoea. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Netazox Syrup with proper consultation and caution. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery after taking Netazox Syrup as it may cause dizziness.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Antibiotics can alter the useful bacteria in the stomach. Therefore, you are advised to take foods rich in probiotics such as yoghurt/curd, kefir, sauerkraut, tempeh, kimchi, miso, kombucha, buttermilk, natto, and cheese.
  • Eat fibre rich food like whole grains, beans, lentils, berries, broccoli, peas, and bananas.
  • Avoid foods rich in calcium, grapefruit, and grapefruit juice as they might hinder antibiotic's absorption.
  • If you have diarrhoea try to drink appropriate amounts of fluids to avoid dehydration. 
  • If you have minor diarrhoea (less than four stools daily) drinking caffeine-free soft drinks, juices or sport rehydration drinks can be sufficient. 
  • If the diarrhoea is more severe, specially formulated rehydration drinks should be taken.
  • Avoid alcoholic beverages with Netazox Syrup as it can make you dehydrated and may affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid the Netazox Syrup in fighting off infections.
