About Colicure Syrup 30 ml

Colicure Syrup 30 ml belongs to the class of ‘antispasmodic/anticholinergic/anti-muscarinic agents’, primarily used to treat functional bowel or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and acid peptic disease. Colicure Syrup 30 ml reduces spasms (sudden involuntary contraction) of the muscles in the stomach and intestines. It effectively relieves stomach cramps, pain in the stomach and intestine, bloating, wind and discomfort.

Colicure Syrup 30 ml contains ‘Dicyclomine’, also known as Dicycloverine. Dicyclomine belongs to the class of ‘anticholinergic/anti-muscarinic agents’ with antispasmodic activity. Colicure Syrup 30 ml blocks the activity of acetylcholine (acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that sends signals to nerve cells) by binding to muscarinic receptors on smooth muscle. This process helps in relaxing the smooth muscles and inhibits natural gut movements. Thus Colicure Syrup 30 ml prevents spasms in the muscles of the stomach and intestines.

Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your medical condition. Common side effects of Colicure Syrup 30 ml include dizziness, drowsiness, light-headedness, weakness, blurred vision, dry eyes, dry mouth, nausea, constipation and abdominal bloating. These side effects may not occur in every patient using this medication and differ individually. If the side effects persist longer or worsen, please seek a doctor’s advice.

Let your doctor know if you are sensitive or allergic to any medications. Before using Colicure Syrup 30 ml, let your doctor know if you have liver, kidney or heart diseases and any other medical history.

Uses of Colicure Syrup 30 ml
