Description
Indications
Dicyclomine is indicated for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome, a specific type of intestinal disorder. Its therapeutic action involves alleviating symptoms such as stomach and intestinal cramping by inhibiting natural gut movements and inducing relaxation in the muscles of the stomach and intestines.
Dicyclomine falls under the classification of anticholinergics/antispasmodics. This medication is contraindicated in children below six months of age due to the potential for severe adverse reactions.
Uses and Dosage
Administer this medication orally, with or without food, as instructed by your physician, generally four times per day.
To minimize the likelihood of adverse effects, your healthcare provider may direct you to begin taking this medication at a low dose and gradually increase it. Comply with your doctor’s guidance.
In case you are using the liquid formulation of this medication, use a unique measuring device/spoon to precisely measure the dose. Avoid using a household spoon as it may not provide the correct dosage. Dilute the liquid dose with an equal amount of water before ingesting it.
Note that antacids may interfere with the absorption of dicyclomine. Avoid taking antacids simultaneously with this medication. If you are on antacids, take them after meals and administer dicyclomine before meals.
The dosage of this medication depends on your age, medical condition, and response to therapy.
