Gilac Capsule is a probiotic capsule containing prebiotics, probiotics that help maintain good nutrition and healthy digestion. It plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of the intestinal lining, supporting proper intestinal motility, and participating in detoxification. Gilac Capsule helps restore healthy gut function and also helps reverse the ratio of good to bad bacteria in your digestive system. It is also a potent nutritional supplement that provides stamina to the body and fights infections.

Gilac Capsule is used in the treatment and prevention of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea (AAD), prevention of Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea, acute infectious diarrhoea and nosocomial diarrhoea in children. Additionally, it is used as an adjuvant therapy for children diarrhoea, acute diarrhoea in adults, Clostridium difficile associated diarrhoea, eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection, inflammatory diseases (Inflammatory bowel disease, Inflammatory bowel syndrome), hepatic encephalopathy (loss of brain function due to severe liver disease) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. 

Gilac Capsule is a unique probiotic combination of multi-species bacteria and yeast. Bacillus mesentericus inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and selectively stimulates the growth of beneficial bacteria. Clostridium butyricum interferes with the growth of pathogenic bacteria like Clostridium difficile. Lactobacillus sporogenes help maintain a healthy balance of microflora in the intestine, thereby improving the gastrointestinal ecology. Streptococcus faecalis helps in clearing diarrhoea, stimulates the immune system, and helps balance intestinal microflora. It also helps reduce symptoms in lactose-intolerant patients. Saccharomyces boulardii stimulates the immune system to help the body destroy the harmful bacteria. Together, they help to treat diarrhoea and inflammatory bowel disease.
