Diaroak is a scientific blend of herbal extracts that maintains and restores the Gastro-Intestinal (GI) functions thus preventing and arresting the episodes of diarrhea. The Ingredients of Diaroak contain mucopolysacchrides that: Prevents the loss of water and nutrients o Increases the transit time of ingesta in gut o Adsorb and inactivate enterotoxins o Captures bacteria irreversibly.

1. DIARRHOEA: ETIOLOGY
• Infectious: • Non infectious:
Bacterial -Dietary abnormality
Viral a. High fiber content
Parasitic b. High Ca content
Fungal c. Change in diet
-Non specific

2. DIARRHEA: CONSEQUENCES
• Loss of water
• loss of nutrients
• low availability of nutrients
• Less weight gain
• Low productivity

3. DIARRHOEA: CONTROL PROGRAM
• ESSENTIAL FOR BETTER SURVIVAL
AND RATE OF GROWTH
– Optimize the peristalsis
– Limit the growth & progression of pathogens
– Adsorb the enterotoxin
– Normalize fluid secretion
DIAROAK IS EMBODIED WITH ALL
THE ATTRIBUTES

4. DIARRHOEA: THERAPY
• ANTIBACTERIAL AGENTS:
– Hamper the intestinal microflora further
hampering the digestibility
– Narrow spectrum of activity
– Physical disturbances not taken care
– Anti-microbial resistance
INCOMPLETE SOLUTION

5. DIAROAK: THE UNIQUENESS
– Reduces transit time of ingesta
– Decreases intestinal secretion
– Increases absorption of intestinal
absorption
– Inactivation of enterotoxin released by
bacteria

6. Andrographis paniculata
– Inhibition of enterotoxin induced secretion
– Interference with adenylate cyclase stimulation
– Non-specifically increase in intestinal
absorption
– Int. J. Crude Drug Research, 1990, 28(4), 273-283

7. Berberis aristata
– Effective in controlling diarrhea in
bacteriologically positive and negative patients
– Reduction in volume & duration of diarrhea,
period of hydration and the convalescent
period
– Journal of Indian Medical Association, 1967, 48(1), 1-17

8. Punica granatum
– Stops castor oil induced diarrhea
– Decreases rate of flow of ingesta thus
controlling diarrhea
– Int. J. Pharmacognosy, 30, 1968, 289

9. Holarrhena Antidysenterica
– Consessine, an alkaloid present in plant is
responsible for treating chronic Amoebic
dysentery
– Int. J. Pharmacy 30, 1968: 289

10. DIAROAK: BENEFITS
• Control irrespective of etiology
• Assists the repair of damaged GI mucosa
• Corrects the malabsorption syndrome
• No damage to friendly microflora
• Devoid of resistance & residues
