FAQs

What is Humatin used for?

Humatin is used for intestinal amebiasis and as an add-on option in the management of hepatic coma (hepatic encephalopathy), depending on the prescriber’s plan.

No. Humatin is used for intestinal amebiasis and is not effective for amebiasis outside the intestines.

For intestinal amebiasis, it is commonly taken in three divided doses with meals for 5 to 10 days. For hepatic coma use, dosing is divided through the day for a short course, based on the prescriber’s directions.

Hearing changes and kidney symptoms are the most important “do not ignore” issues, especially if you have bowel inflammation or other risk factors.

Take your next dose at the regular time. Do not take two doses at once.
