DiaRelieve® contains Diosmectite, a natural clay that is not absorbed into the body, and works through the adhesion of water molecules to the surface of the substance. As an effective adsorbent it can hold up to eight times its own weight of liquid, and as a result, it reduces excess fluid in the intestine and helps improve stool consistency.
Available pack sizes – 10 sachets
