Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Take probiotics after completing the full course of Azolin 1gm Injection to restore healthy bacteria in the intestine that may have been killed due to the use of antibiotics. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut and kimchi can help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by gut bacteria which helps stimulate their growth. Whole grains like whole-grain bread, and brown rice, should be included in your diet.

  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages with Azolin 1gm Injection as it can make you dehydrated and affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid Azolin 1gm Injection in fighting off infections.
