Digestive problems are found in both children and adults. Most often, a pathological condition causes malnutrition, prolonged treatment with certain medications. The drug "Hilak Forte" is able to restore the intestinal microflora and relieve unpleasant symptoms. This is one of the most effective prebiotics. The cheap analogue of “Hilak Forte” does not always have the same powerful therapeutic effect. Therefore, before replacing the original product, you should consult a specialist.
Description of the drug "Hilak Forte"
Recently, digestive problems have been observed in many people. Various factors provoke the disease: poor and unbalanced nutrition, stress, a sedentary lifestyle, bad habits. Sometimes, to normalize the intestinal microflora, it is necessary to take special medicines - prebiotics, which are a substrate for the life of beneficial bacteria. These medicines include Hilak Forte drops.
The drug is available in the form of drops, which have an acidic taste. The main active ingredients are non-embryonic aqueous substrates of metabolic products of beneficial bacteria: Lactobacillus helveticus, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus faecalis, Lactobacillus acidophilus. These substances help normalize the intestinal microflora. In addition to these substances, the prebiotic includes lactic acid, which helps to restore the acidity of the digestive tract.
When is it prescribed?
"Hilak Forte", according to the instructions, should be taken with the following pathologies:
- disorders of the gastrointestinal tract;
- diarrhea, constipation, bloating, heartburn;
- intestinal dysbiosis provoked by the use of antibacterial drugs;
- allergic rashes on the skin;
- chronic colitis;
- liver pathology;
- intestinal infections.
The drug is often prescribed for the treatment of such pathological conditions in children. Drops are given in pure form or diluted in a small amount of sweetened water. In addition to establishing digestion, the prebiotic significantly improves the state of the immune system. After all, as you know, immunity is formed precisely in the intestine and depends on microflora.
We select a cheap analog
Hilak Forte may not be suitable for the patient in some cases. One reason may be the cost of the drug. Drops "Hilak Forte" (bottle volume 30 ml) will cost the patient 250-290 rubles. Given that one such bottle is enough for several days, it will not be difficult to guess that the treatment will come out quite expensive (the recommended course of therapy is 1 month). That is why many patients try to find no less effective substitute, but at a more affordable price.
Choosing a cheap analogue of “Hilak Forte”, it is necessary to pay attention primarily to the composition of the drug. It is also worth noting that substitutes are not always effective, unlike the original. The following drugs have a similar therapeutic effect:
- "Acylact."
- "Bifidumbacterin."
- Primadofilus.
- "Biosporin."
- Acipol.
- "Lactobacterin."
- Enterol.
- Linex
- "Probifor".
- "Beefinorm."
Choosing the best medicine to normalize the digestion process and intestinal microflora will help your doctor.
The drug "Acylact"
The cheapest analogue of “Hilak Forte” is the drug “Acylact”, which contains acidophilic lactic acid bacteria. The tool is used in the treatment of intestinal and oral dysbiosis, violation of the microflora of the genitourinary system, atopic dermatitis. “Acylact” is available in the form of a lyophilisate, tablets and suppositories.
The drug is safe for children and pregnant women. Despite the fact that the product has established itself as a fairly effective probiotic, the original drug “Hilak Forte” still has a more pronounced therapeutic effect. Reviews about the drug confirm the positive dynamics with the correct use of the drug.
Biosporin
In diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, specialists often prescribe the biosporin prebiotic. It includes strains of aerobic bacteria that contribute to the restoration of microflora. The drug has a positive effect on the immune system, improves the absorption of vitamins and minerals. The product is available in the form of a lyophilisate powder and tablets. Comparing Biosporin and Hilak Forte, we can say that both drugs have a powerful therapeutic effect and significantly improve the intestinal microflora.
Among the preparations containing beneficial bacteria to normalize microflora, the most effective is "Hilak Forte." Analogs, reviews of which can be heard both from patients and from specialists, can not always replace the original drug. Therefore, without consulting a doctor, replacing the drug is not recommended.
