Aristogyl Plus Tablet is a combination of three drugs: Metronidazole (antibiotic), Diloxanide (amoebicide), and Simethicone (anti-foaming agent). Aristogyl Plus Tablet is used to treat diarrhoea. Metronidazole kills the bacteria by damaging their DNA. Diloxanide kills the infection-causing micro-organisms by acting on the intestine. Simethicone decreases the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitating gas expulsion through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract. Together, Aristogyl Plus Tablet helps in treating diarrhoea.
