Indications - Dia-Furyl 200 mg Capsules is used in the treatment of acute diarrhea of bacterial origin when there is no suspect of invasive phenomena (alteration in the general status, fever, ...). - Rehydration and dietary precautions should be considered during treatment if necessary. -The rehydration importance and its route of administration is determined according to age, severity of diarrhea and patients conditions (associated sickness, ....). Dosage & administration - Adults: 4 capsules per day divided on 2 to 4 doses. - Children (more than 6 years): 3 to 4 capsules per day divided on 2 to 4 doses. - The treatment duration should not exceed 7 days. Side effects Possibility of allergic reactions. Contra-indications Allergy to Nitrofurans derivatives. Drug-Drug Interactions Not known Pregnancy and Lactation - There are no adequate and well controlled studies in pregnant women. It is not recommended to use Dia-Furyl 200 mg Capsules during pregnancy. - Can be used during lactation in case of brief treatment. Precautions and warnings - Not to be used in children less than 6 years. - If diarrhea persists after 2 days of treatment, oral or intravenous rehydration will be essential. - In case of infectious diarrhea with clinical manifestations suggesting invasive phenomena the treatment must be by an antibiotic haying a good systemic diffusion. Patient information - Stick to the dose prescribed by the physician. - You can use this medication safely with the oral rehydration therapy (ORT).

Susceptibility of Archaea to Antimicrobial Agents: Applications to Clinical Microbiology
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Elsevier - Publisher Connector REVIEW 10.1111/j.1469-0691.2012.03913.x Susceptibility of archaea to antimicrobial agents: applications to clinical microbiology S. Khelaiﬁa and M. Drancourt Unite´ de Recherche sur les Maladies Infectieuses et Tropicales Emergentes, UMR CNRS 6236 IRD 3R198, Me´diterrane´e Infection, Faculte´ de Me´decine, Aix-marseille-Universite´, Marseille, France Abstract We herein review the state of knowledge regarding the in vitro and in vivo susceptibility of archaea to antimicrobial agents, including some new molecules. Indeed, some archaea colonizing the human microbiota have been implicated in diseases such as periodontopathy. Archaea are characterized by their broad-spectrum resistance to antimicrobial agents. In particular, their cell wall lacks peptidoglycan, making them resistant to antimicrobial agents interfering with peptidoglycan biosynthesis. Archaea are, however, susceptible to the pro- tein synthesis inhibitor fusidic acid and imidazole derivatives. Also, squalamine, an antimicrobial agent acting on the cell wall, proved effective against human methanogenic archaea. In vitro susceptibility data could be used to design protocols for the decontamination of complex microbiota and the selective isolation of archaea in anaerobic culture.

One of the key approaches to tackling an- timicrobial resistance is clinical, livestock, and environmental surveillance applying methods capable of effectively identifying antimicrobial non-susceptibility as well as genes that promote resistance. Current clinical laboratory practices involve conventional culture-based antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods, taking over 24 h to find out which medication should be prescribed to treat the infection. Although there are techniques that provide rapid resistance detection, it is necessary to have new tools that are easy to operate, are robust, sensitive, specific, and inexpensive. Chemical sensors and biosensors are devices that could have the necessary characteristics for the rapid diag- Citation: Reynoso, E.C.; Laschi, S.; nosis of resistant microorganisms and could provide crucial information on the choice of antibiotic Palchetti, I.; Torres, E.
