It belongs to the group of medicines called antidiarrheals.

Tanagel contains the active ingredient gelatine tanate, and is indicated for the treatment of symptoms of acute non-specific diarrhea in adults and adolescents over 14 years of age, when dietary measures and oral rehydration are not sufficient.

You should consult a doctor if it worsens or does not improve after 2 days.

2. What you need to know before taking Tanagel

Do not take Tanagel:

Warnings and Precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Tanagel if:

  • you have kidney disease or are an elderly patient

If you do not see improvement in 2 days, consult your doctor.

Patients with diarrhea should drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration, which is characterized by dry mouth, excessive thirst, decreased urine output, wrinkled skin, dizziness, and drowsiness. This is especially important in elderly people.

Since the treatment of diarrhea with Tanagel is only symptomatic, the diarrhea should be treated taking into account its cause, when possible.

Using Tanagel with Other Medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicine.
