Product Description
Mechanism of action
Butoform is an antidiarrheal and antimicrobial agent believed to exert its effects through mild antiseptic activity and inhibition of intestinal secretions. It interacts with bacterial metabolic pathways and modulates GI motility via weak anticholinergic action.
Benefits and advantages
Used in gastrointestinal research, diarrheal-pathway modelling, antimicrobial SAR investigations, gut-microbiome interaction studies and intestinal-secretion assays.
Side effects and risks
Risks include constipation, anticholinergic symptoms, GI discomfort and hypersensitivity. Handle under GI-active antimicrobial precautions.
