Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Redotil Powder. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Redotil Powder

Redotil Powder contains Racecadotril (10mg). It belongs to the Enkephalinase inhibitor (intestinal antisecretory) class of medicines.

Uses of Redotil Powder

  • Symptomatic treatment of acute diarrhoea in infants
  • Children (usually >3 months)
  • As an adjunct to oral rehydration therapy (ORS)
  • May be used in acute diarrhoea in adults as per physician advice

Benefits of Redotil Powder

In Digestive problems
Redotil relieves the digestive symptom it was prescribed for, whether that is loose motions, cramps, bloating or an unsettled stomach.
In Loose motions
Redotil slows the gut or restores its balance, so stools become formed again and the urgency and cramping settle.
In Restoring gut bacteria
Redotil replaces the helpful bacteria the gut loses during diarrhoea or a course of antibiotics, helping digestion settle sooner.
In Stomach protection
Redotil coats and protects the stomach lining from acid and irritant medicines, easing pain and allowing the lining to heal.

How Redotil Powder works

Racecadotril is an enkephalinase inhibitor. It reduces intestinal hypersecretion of water and electrolytes by increasing endogenous enkephalins in the gut, without significantly affecting intestinal motility.

How to take Redotil Powder

Dissolve the contents of the sachet in a small amount of water, milk, or food and administer immediately. Use as prescribed by the doctor, typically given 3 times daily until diarrhoea stops (not usually beyond 7 days). Continue ORS; maintain hydration. For pediatric use, dose is weight/age-based as advised by the physician.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine may cause bloating and loose motions. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Redotil Powder

Most side effects of Redotil are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Headache
  • nausea
  • vomiting
  • abdominal pain
  • constipation
  • rash
  • pruritus
  • urticaria

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
