Medicinal Benefits

DECOLIC AMPULE 2ML contains ‘Dicyclomine,’ also known as Dicycloverine. Dicyclomine is an ‘anticholinergic/anti-muscarinic agent’ with antispasmodic activity. DECOLIC AMPULE 2ML effectively treats irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It works by blocking the activity of acetylcholine by binding to muscarinic receptors on smooth muscle. This process helps relax the smooth muscles, inhibits natural gut movements, decreases gastric acid secretion, and controls excessive gastrointestinal secretions. Thus it prevents spasms in the muscles of the stomach and intestines. DECOLIC AMPULE 2ML is also used to relieve stomach cramps, bloating, and pain in the stomach and intestine.
