About CLISTAR TABLET

CLISTAR TABLET is a combination medicine used to treat irritable bowel syndrome, peptic ulcers, enterocolitis (swelling in the intestine), and symptoms related to intestinal infection. Irritable bowel syndrome is a common disease that affects the large intestine. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the lining of the stomach and intestine due to erosion of the stomach protective lining.
 
CLISTAR TABLET is a combination of three drugs, namely: Clidinium (anti-cholinergic), Chlordiazepoxide (benzodiazepine), and Dicyclomine (anti-cholinergic). Clidinium works by reducing stomach acid and decreases intestinal spasms. Dicyclomine helps in decreasing stomach cramps and spasms. Chlordiazepoxide decreases abnormal activity in the brain.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as weakness, tiredness, dry mouth, nausea, constipation, and drowsiness. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
