The active ingredient in Sestil-AD Tablet is loperamide.

• Loperamide works by slowing down the contractions of the intestines.
• This action reduces the speed at which the contents pass through the intestines.
• Slowing down intestinal contractions allows more time for the reabsorption of fluids and nutrients.
• As a result, stools become more solid and less frequent.
• Loperamide does not cure the cause of diarrhoea but helps manage its symptoms.
• By reducing the frequency and liquidity of stools, it provides relief from diarrhoea.
• The exact mechanism by which loperamide achieves these effects involves specific interactions with receptors in the intestines.
• These interactions help regulate intestinal motility and promote water absorption by the body.
• Ultimately, this results in firmer stools and a decrease in the frequency of bowel movements.
