What is Hilak Forte
The drug is intended to normalize the internal microflora of the intestine, maintain normal water and electrolyte balance, and help strengthen the immune system. Contains a complex of active strains - products of internal metabolism:
- Escherichia coli;
- Enterococcus faecalis;
- Lactobacillus acidophilus.
Among the auxiliary compounds: lactose enzyme, lactic and citric acids, potassium phosphate and stabilizing additives.
Hilak Forte is a drop for oral administration: water-based, with a characteristic sour odor and taste, yellowish in color. Produced in bottles of 30–100 ml, the packaging is equipped with dispenser caps.
Composition and release form
Khilakt Forte is a drug for restoring the balance of intestinal microflora. Advantages - can be used simultaneously with antibacterial agents, since the composition does not contain live bacteria.
Contains aqueous germless substrates of metabolic products:
- coli;
- Lactobacillus acidophilus;
- Lactobacillus helveticus;
- fecal enterococcus.
Additional ingredients - potassium phosphate and sodium heptahydrate, phosphoric, lactic, citric acids, potassium sorbate. The drops contain lactose, which should be taken into account by people intolerant to this substance.
Release form: drops for oral use. The solution is transparent, pale yellow in color, with a sour odor. Packaged in dark glass containers with a 30 or 100 ml dispenser.
Shelf life – 4 years. After opening the container with drops – 1.5 months. Store at a temperature of 20-25 degrees, keep away from children.
The components of Hilak and Hilak Forte drops are not identical. Hilak contains only an aqueous concentrate of metabolites of L. helveticus lactobacilli, strain DSM 4183.
Why is Hilak Forte needed?
The drug regulates the acid-base and salt balance of the intestines, accelerates the regeneration of the epithelium of its walls, normalizes digestive processes, and suppresses the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms.
Hilak Forte is recommended for stabilizing intestinal function after treatment with antibiotics, abdominal surgery, infectious diseases, dietary disorders, exposure to chemicals, and intoxication. The microcultures, acids and salts present in the drops neutralize negative factors, restore the activity of the digestive tract, and improve the absorption of nutrients and electrolytes.
Rules of application
Before each dose, the bottle of medicine should be shaken. Drops can be diluted in any liquid except milk. Take the drug before or during meals three times a day. The drops cannot be taken in their pure form.
Single dosages:
- children from birth to 2 years – 5-10 drops/kg;
- children 2-12 years old – 20-40 drops;
- children over 12 years old, adults – 40-60 drops.
If you feel better, you can reduce the dosage by 2 times. For heartburn, increased secretion of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, divide the daily dose into 5-6 doses. The average duration of therapy is 4 weeks.
For what pathologies is Hilak Forte used?
The list of indications for prescribing the drug includes:
- intestinal disorders: flatulence, constipation, diarrhea;
- consequences of radiation treatment, taking sulfonamides and other antimicrobial agents;
- liver dysfunction;
- gastritis with decreased secretory function of the stomach;
- digestive disorders due to climate change (travelers' diarrhea);
- chronic poisoning with symptoms of intestinal disorders;
- allergic manifestations;
- skin inflammatory diseases;
- recovery stage for salmonellosis;
- dysfunction and inflammation of the gallbladder.
The drug is used in combination with other medications, complementing their action and neutralizing the body's negative reactions. Therapy must be supplemented with detoxification measures and a special diet.
Indications and therapeutic effect
Hilak Forte acts immediately after the first dose, since it contains active metabolites. Drops can be taken from the first day of antibacterial therapy. But the medicine can only be used as an adjuvant therapy.
Hilak Forte normalizes the acid-base balance, which leads to the active growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria. In this case, pathogenic microorganisms die. The medicine improves the secretory function of the intestines and the process of assimilation and processing of food. The drug has a beneficial effect on the mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract, and the intestinal microflora is gradually restored.
What pathological conditions will Hilak Forte help with:
- imbalance of intestinal microflora due to antibacterial or radiation therapy, when taking sulfonamides, after surgical interventions on the gastrointestinal tract;
- dyspeptic disorders - diarrhea, nausea, bloating, heartburn, constipation;
- maldigestion syndrome – disruption of the process of breakdown of food components in the gastrointestinal tract due to enzymatic deficiency;
- non-ulcer dyspepsia;
- chronic, atrophic gastroenteritis;
- hypoacid and anacid gastritis;
- colitis, age-related changes in the intestines;
- intestinal disorders that occur when climate conditions change;
- intestinal intoxication in chronic form;
- energogenic pathologies of the liver and gall bladder;
- dermatological pathologies - chronic eczema, atopic dermatitis, urticaria.
Hilak Forte can be taken if you have salmonellosis during the recovery stage. The drug is safe even for infants, pregnant and lactating women.
The active components of the drug are not absorbed into the blood and act exclusively in the intestinal lumen.
How to give Hilak Forte to children
In pediatrics, the medicine is used for children over 2 years of age. In practice, it is possible to prescribe Hilak Forte to infants and newborns: to eliminate pathological regurgitation and prevent its dangerous consequences - aspiration pneumonia. In some cases, drops help eliminate increased gas formation, persistent constipation, bloating and intestinal colic.
- A single volume of the drug for infants should not exceed 15 drops;
- a single dose for children from 2 to 12 years old is 20–30 drops;
- Teenagers can take the medicine in an adult dosage.
In the first days, a three-time dose is recommended. As the symptoms of intestinal disorders decrease, you can reduce the frequency to 2 per day or reduce the dose of drops.
Contraindications and adverse reactions
Hilak Forte is well tolerated by children and adults. During treatment, allergic reactions to the skin and mucous membranes rarely occur. Isolated cases of diarrhea and nausea were recorded.
The instructions indicate that the medicine can be given to children over 2 years of age. But doctors often prescribe the drug to infants. No negative reactions were recorded.
Drops should not be taken by people with hypersensitivity to the ingredients of the drug, acute diarrhea, or the presence of blood in the stool. The metabiotic is contraindicated if there is a history of lactose intolerance, Lapp lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption.
Hilak should not be used simultaneously with antacid medications. Antacids destroy lactic acid, which is a component of the drops.
