Scientific Evidence
Diosmectite, the active ingredient in Apsorbin, is a natural clay that has been shown to have adsorbent properties, binding to toxins and pathogens in the gastrointestinal tract. Studies have demonstrated its efficacy in reducing the duration and severity of acute diarrhea episodes.
Clinical Evidence and Proven Effectiveness
Clinical trials comparing diosmectite with other antidiarrheal agents have shown favorable outcomes in terms of efficacy and safety profile. A study by Dupont et al. (2009) demonstrated that diosmectite was effective in reducing the duration of diarrhea and improving stool consistency in children.
