Erceflora is a probiotic supplement that contains Bacillus clausii, which is a type of bacteria that takes shelter in the soil. These beneficial bacteria are sometimes used to treat diarrhea or treat and prevent respiratory infections in children. While Erceflora is usually considered safe, you should always consult your doctor regarding the risks and benefits of taking any new supplement. If your doctor recommends Ercefora, follow the instructions carefully.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Getting a Prescription from a Doctor
Step 1. Talk to your doctor about using Erceflora to treat diarrhea
B. clausii supplements can help balance the bacteria in your gut. If you have chronic diarrhea (which lasts for more than 2 weeks) or is caused by an infection, ask about Erceflora or other supplements containing B. clausii.
Erceflora can also help prevent or treat diarrhea caused by H. pylori therapy
Step 2. Ask your doctor about using Erceflora to prevent respiratory infections
In addition to treating bacterial imbalances in the gut, B. clausii can also be used to prevent recurrent respiratory infections, especially in children. If the child suffers from recurrent respiratory infections, consult a pediatrician regarding the use of Erceflora.
This treatment is especially useful for children with respiratory allergies, who are prone to recurrent infections
Step 3. Tell your doctor if you have a weakened immune system
Erceflora is generally safe for most people. However, your doctor may not recommend it if you have a weakened immune system, either due to illness or medication. Tell your doctor if you have any health problems before using Erceflora.
While Erceflora is likely safe if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, tell your doctor before using or taking any new supplements or medications
Step 4. Provide a list of other medications and supplements you are currently taking
Typically, Erceflora does not interact with other supplements or medications. However, it's a good idea to provide your doctor with a list of all supplements, prescription drugs, or commercial drugs currently being used.
Provide complete information to your doctor regarding the medication you are taking so he can determine the best treatment for you
Tip:
You can take Erceflora while you are on antibiotic treatment. However, doctors recommend that you take Erceflora between doses of antibiotics, rather than taking them together.
Method 2 of 2: Using Erceflora Correctly
Step 1. Follow the doctor's instructions for dosage
The amount of Erceflora you need to take depends on your age and goals. Ask your doctor for detailed guidance, and don't hesitate to call or ask your pharmacist if you have any questions. Erceflora is usually given in a single dose vial.
- If you are an adult, your doctor may recommend 3 bottles a day. For infants or children, 1-2 bottles are usually prescribed a day.
- Depending on the reason for using Erceflora, you can use it from 10 days to 3 months.
- Eat Erceflora at regular intervals throughout the day (eg 3-4 hours apart).
Warning:
Erceflora should only be used orally / eaten. Use by injection or other means can cause a severe allergic reaction.
Step 2. Mix Erceflora with milk, tea or orange juice
Erceflora is also available in liquid form. To make the Erceflora dose more comfortable to drink, your doctor may suggest mixing it with a drink. Try mixing Erceflora with milk, tea, juice, or sweetened water.
- Make sure you drink one glass all the way through to get the full dose of Erceflora.
- If you are giving Erceflora to an infant or child, ask your pediatrician if you can mix it with your child's formula, juice, or electrolyte supplements.
Step 3. Store the sealed bottle in a dry and cool place
B. clausii bacteria are very heat resistant so they don't need to be refrigerated. Sealed bottles can last up to 2 years as long as they are not exposed to temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius. Store bottles in a cool place out of reach of children, for example in kitchen cabinets.
Once you open a vial of Erceflora, the entire dose should be used as soon as possible
Step 4. Call your doctor if you experience any side effects
Erceflora rarely causes side effects, but there are people who are allergic or very sensitive to this drug. Call your doctor if you experience symptoms such as a rash, itching, or swelling in your hands, feet, or face.
