About Gutlast Capsule

Gutlast Capsule belongs to the group of medicines called probiotics used to treat antibiotic-associated diarrhoea, infectious diarrhoea, gastroenteritis, inflammatory bowel disease, constipation, Clostridium-difficile associated diarrhoea, Helicobacter pylori infection, traveller’s diarrhoea, diarrhoea in pregnant women, and lactose intolerance. Gutlast Capsule promotes the health of the intestine, balances the gut flora, increases gut immunity, and supports a balanced inflammatory response
 
Gutlast Capsule is a combination of four probiotics, namely: Bacillus mesentericus, Clostridium butyricum, Lactobacillus sporogenes and Streptococcus faecalis. Bacillus mesentericus inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and helps in digestion by regulating abnormal movements. 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. It also helps in maintaining healthy lipid levels by incorporating cholesterol into its cellular structure. Streptococcus faecalis helps in clearing diarrhoea, stimulates the immune system, and helps balance intestinal microflora. It also helps reduce symptoms in lactose-intolerant patients. Together, Gutlast Capsule helps treat conditions associated with dysbacteriosis.
