In the case of nifuroxazide tablets, the manufacturers do not provide information on the possibility of dividing the tablet or do not recommend crushing the tablet or biting it. The capsules are also recommended to be swallowed whole, the manufacturer does not inform about the possibility of spilling their contents.
If nifuroxazide is required, oral suspension may be considered. However, the drug in this form is only available on prescription, it will be necessary to contact a doctor who will assess the legitimacy and safety of its use. If an antidiarrhoeal medicine is necessary, another preparation, available as a powder for oral suspension or suspension in a sachet, may also be considered.
