In order to choose an effective drug to cleanse the body of toxins and toxins, you should be examined by a gastroenterologist. First of all, it is necessary to exclude diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, in which enterosorbents are used with great care or not used at all. These include:
- peptic ulcer;
- bleeding and erosion;
- atony and dysfunction.
If there are no contraindications from the stomach and intestines, then, on the recommendation of a doctor, you can start taking enterosorbents for prophylactic or therapeutic purposes. In the first case, the course will be small – from 5 to 14 days, with a break of at least a month, after which the course can be repeated.
If the patient already has a malfunction of the excretory system, problems with the filtering function of the liver and other abnormalities, the treatment regimen using sorbents is determined by the doctor.
