• The recommended dose is:
  • For the treatment of fungal diseases in the gastrointestinal tract - especially during treatment with drugs that promote yeast growth in the gastrointestinal tract (e.g. broad-spectrum antibiotics, corticoids, cytostatics) - 1-2 film-coated tablets 3 times a day (according to 1.5-3.0 million IU per day).
