Common use
Diarex is indicated for the treatment of acute diarrhea in adults and children over 6 years of age. It is effective against diarrhea caused by bacterial or viral infections, food intolerances, medication side effects, and traveler’s diarrhea. The medication may also provide relief for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) symptoms when used under medical supervision. Patients typically experience significant improvement within 24-48 hours of initiating treatment.
Dosage and direction
Adults and children over 12 years: Take one tablet three times daily after meals. Tablets should be placed on the tongue and allowed to dissolve completely without water. Continue treatment until normal bowel movements are restored, usually within 2-3 days. Do not exceed three tablets in 24 hours.
Children 6-12 years: Half tablet three times daily after meals. Treatment duration should not exceed 48 hours without medical consultation.
For optimal results, maintain adequate fluid intake throughout treatment. Continue normal diet as tolerated, focusing on bland foods during the acute phase.
Precautions
- Maintain adequate hydration with oral rehydration solutions during treatment
- Consult healthcare provider if symptoms persist beyond 48 hours
- Not recommended for use beyond 7 consecutive days without medical supervision
- Use caution in elderly patients due to increased dehydration risk
- Monitor for signs of dehydration (reduced urine output, dry mouth, dizziness)
- Diarrhea with fever or blood in stools requires immediate medical attention
- Not intended for chronic diarrhea management without diagnostic evaluation
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to racecadotril or any product components
- Patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min)
- Children under 6 years of age
- Patients with fructose intolerance (due to excipient content)
- History of angioedema related to previous racecadotril use
- Acute pancreatitis or pancreatic insufficiency
- Severe hepatic impairment
Possible side effects
Most patients tolerate Diarex well when used as directed. Reported side effects include:
- Mild headache (2-3% of users)
- Transient skin reactions including rash (<1%)
- Nausea or vomiting (1-2%)
- Abdominal discomfort (<1%)
- Dizziness or lightheadedness (1%)
- Constipation following resolution of diarrhea (2%)
These effects are generally mild and resolve without intervention. Discontinue use and consult healthcare provider if side effects persist or worsen.
Drug interaction
- May enhance effects of other antidiarrheal medications (avoid concomitant use)
- Can reduce absorption of concurrently administered oral medications (maintain 2-hour gap)
- Potential interaction with ACE inhibitors requires monitoring
- No significant interactions with oral contraceptives reported
- Caution with diabetic medications due to potential electrolyte changes
- Consult healthcare provider regarding interactions with anticoagulants
Missed dose
If a dose is missed, take it as soon as remembered unless it is nearly time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one. Maintain regular dosing schedule to ensure consistent therapeutic effect. The antisecretory action depends on maintained drug levels for optimal efficacy.
Overdose
Cases of overdose are rare due to the favorable safety profile. Symptoms may include constipation, abdominal discomfort, or drowsiness. In case of suspected overdose, discontinue medication immediately and maintain hydration. Seek medical attention if symptoms are severe. There is no specific antidote; treatment should be symptomatic and supportive. Activated charcoal may be considered if ingestion occurred within previous 2 hours.
Storage
Store at room temperature (15-30°C) in original packaging. Protect from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep blister strips intact until use. Do not transfer tablets to other containers. Keep out of reach of children. Discard any tablets that show signs of deterioration or discoloration. Do not use beyond expiration date printed on packaging.

Reviews
Clinical studies demonstrate Diarex reduces stool output by 40-60% within 24 hours compared to placebo. 89% of patients report significant improvement in abdominal discomfort within 12 hours of initial dose. Pediatric studies show similar efficacy profiles with good tolerability in children over 6 years. Real-world evidence supports rapid return to normal activities with average symptom resolution within 2.3 days. Healthcare professionals rate Diarex as a valuable first-line option for acute diarrhea management due to its multimodal action and favorable safety profile.
