Vomiting
Epigastric discomfort: This type of stomach pain or discomfort occurs in the upper abdomen.
Metallic taste: You might experience an unusual or unpleasant taste in your mouth.
Dizziness
Headache

Managing the Side Effects:

Tinilox-MPS Tablet contains two active ingredients:

Diloxanide (250 mg): This is a luminal amoebicide which acts directly in your intestine. Although its exact mechanism isn't fully known, it's believed that diloxanide inhibits protein synthesis in parasites, leading to their death.
Tinidazole (300 mg): This ingredient belongs to the class of nitroimidazole antibiotics. It works by disrupting the DNA of susceptible organisms like Entamoeba histolytica and anaerobic bacteria, causing them to die off.

By combining these two ingredients, Tinilox-MPS Tablet works effectively against various parasitic infections in your body.

Pregnancy

Tinilox-MPS Tablet is not recommended during the first trimester of pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, consult your doctor before starting this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Caution is advised while breastfeeding as both diloxanide and tinidazole are excreted in breast milk in small amounts. It's best to discuss with your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

Avoid consuming alcohol during and for 3 days after therapy with Tinilox-MPS Tablet. This is because the combination of alcohol and tinidazole may cause an unpleasant reaction.

Anticoagulants: Tinidazole in the tablet may increase the blood-thinning effect of medicines like warfarin, increasing the risk of bleeding.
CYP3A4 inducers: Medicines such as phenytoin and rifampin may decrease tinidazole levels in your body, potentially reducing its effectiveness.
CYP3A4 inhibitors: Medicines like cimetidine and ketoconazole may increase tinidazole levels in your body, potentially enhancing side effects.

Neurological disorders: Tinidazole may cause neurological disturbances such as seizures or dizziness. So if you have a history of neurological disorders, inform your doctor before starting this medication.

Daily Dose

Keep the medicine in a dry place, shielded from light and moisture.
Always keep your medicine out of sight and reach of children.
Ensure to use Tinilox-MPS Tablet before its expiry date.

As dehydration often worsens intestinal infections, you must drink plenty of fluids daily. This helps replace any fluids lost due to diarrhoea associated with the infection.
