What is Ultra-levure 50 used for?

ULTRA-LEVURE 50 mg capsule is indicated for the adjunctive symptomatic treatment of diarrhea, in addition to rehydration, in adults and children over 6 years of age.

This medicine is used in cases of diarrhea to help manage digestive symptoms. It does not replace essential rehydration measures, which are particularly important to prevent water and mineral salt losses associated with frequent or liquid stools.

In the event of persistent diarrhea, signs of dehydration or worsening of symptoms, medical advice should be sought.

Ultra-levure mechanism of action

ULTRA-LEVURE 50 mg belongs to the pharmacotherapeutic class of antidiarrheal microorganisms.

It contains Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745, a yeast used as a replacement intestinal flora. Its role is to help compensate for a transient imbalance in intestinal flora that may accompany certain digestive disorders, particularly episodes of diarrhea.

The intestinal flora plays a role in various digestive and defense functions. Certain factors, such as digestive tract infections or dietary changes, can upset this balance.

Dosage and administration

Usual dosage

For adults and children over 6 years of age.

The recommended dose is :

4 capsules per day, divided into 2 doses.

  • Swallow capsules with a large glass of water.

What is a substitute flora?

 

The intestinal flora is made up of billions of microorganisms. Its balance is necessary to maintain certain essential functions of the digestive tract such as digestion of food, defense against infectious agents, stimulation and strengthening of immune defenses.

But this balance is fragile and can be called into question by many factors: intestinal infections by a virus or a bacterium, taking certain drugs such as antibiotics, changes in eating habits ... which can lead to various digestive disorders including diarrhea. Ultra-Yeast is a drug of the intestinal flora called "substitution flora" which compensates for a transient imbalance of the intestinal flora.

GLOSSARY (summary)


diarrhea
The strict medical sense of diarrhea is "emission of stools too frequent and too abundant". In fact, common sense equates diarrhea with the notion of fluid and frequent stools. Normally, stools are pasty, but the emission of liquid or barely formed stools, without pain or particular associated disorder, is not pathological. Diarrhea may occur when liquid stool emissions are repeated throughout the day and the needs are overwhelming or painful.
Many medicines can accelerate intestinal transit and make the stools more liquid, without this undesirable effect being of real concern.
Antibiotics can alter the digestive flora, essential for digestion, and cause more or less troublesome but benign diarrhea. The effect appears immediately or after a few days of treatment. A severe and exceptional form of diarrhea, pseudomembranous colitis, can be observed after antibiotic treatment; this condition results in the emission of mucus and false membranes (resembling skin flaps) associated with abdominal pain; constipation may replace the initial diarrhea. Pseudomembranous colitis can occur several days after discontinuation of antibiotic treatment and requires urgent medical advice.


allergic reaction
Reaction due to hypersensitivity of the organism to a drug. Allergic reactions can take a wide variety of aspects: urticaria, angioedema, eczema, eruption of pimples resembling measles, etc. Anaphylactic shock is a generalized allergic reaction that causes discomfort due to a sudden drop in blood pressure.


treatment
Treatment that complements the action of a specific treatment, but generally does not achieve healing on its own.
