• Treatment of diarrhea

After being consumed, the probiotic travels to the intestines, then adheres to the intestinal wall and begins colonizing. During this process, it releases several healthy chemicals with anti-microbial, anti-toxin, anti-inflammatory, and anti-hypersecretory benefits. The anti-diarrheal action of Sam Drops can be seen as early as the first day of treatment.

Informs your healthcare provider about all the medicines the child takes, including prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, nutritional and vitamin supplements, and herbal products. Certain medications interact with Sam Drops and reduce their effectiveness by causing undesirable side effects.
