Racecadotril is an antidiarrheal medication used for the treatment of acute diarrhea in children and adults. It works by inhibiting enkephalinase, an enzyme that degrades enkephalins, thereby reducing excessive secretion of water and electrolytes in the intestine.

The medication is taken orally, as directed by a doctor, usually three times daily until symptoms improve. It is important for patients to stay properly hydrated during treatment.

Patients should be aware of potential side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, or allergic reactions. It is important to inform the doctor of any unusual symptoms.

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. In rare cases, severe reactions such as allergic reactions may occur. Patients should be informed of these risks before use.
