How it works

Due to its leaflet structure and its high plastic viscosity, it possesses a powerful coating property on the gastrointestinal mucosa. By interacting with glycoproteins of mucus, it increases the resistance of the mucosal gel in response to aggressive agents. By its action on the gastrointestinal mucous barrier and its high binding capacity. Smecta protects the gastrointestinal mucosa. It is radiolucent, does not colour the stools and, at usual doses, does not modify the physiological intestinal transit time.
