CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE

About

CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE belongs to the class of 'gastrointestinal agents,' primarily used to treat stomach and intestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome, peptic ulcers, enterocolitis (swelling in the intestine), and bowel infections. Irritable bowel syndrome is an intestinal disorder that causes stomach pain, wind, constipation, and diarrhea. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the stomach and intestine lining due to erosion of the stomach's protective lining.

CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE contains Chlordiazepoxide (benzodiazepine), Clidinium (anti-cholinergic), and Pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor (PPI)). Chlordiazepoxide decreases abnormal and excess activity of the nerve cells in the brain by increasing a chemical messenger called GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). Clidinium helps relax the smooth muscles and inhibits the natural gut movements, thereby providing relief from cramps, discomfort, bloating, and pain. Pantoprazole works by blocking an enzyme called gastric proton pump, which is responsible for acid production.

Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your medical condition. Common side effects of CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE include dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, blurred vision, dry eyes, dry mouth, nausea, constipation, flatulence, confusion, diarrhea, 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.

Before using CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE, let your doctor know if you have any liver, kidney, heart diseases, or other medical history. CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE may cause blurred vision, dizziness, and drowsiness; hence do not drive or operate machinery until you feel better. Avoid taking CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy as it may cause congenital disabilities (birth defects). CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE may pass into breastmilk, so avoid taking CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE if you are breastfeeding. Avoid consumption of alcohol while taking CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE as it may cause increased drowsiness. CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE is not recommended for use in children.

Medicinal Benefits

CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE is a combination of Chlordiazepoxide, Clidinium, and Pantoprazole. Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that decreases abnormal and excess activity of the nerve cells in the brain by increasing a chemical messenger called GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). Clidinium is an anticholinergic agent that blocks acetylcholine activity by binding to muscarinic receptors on smooth muscle. This helps relax the smooth muscles and inhibits the natural gut movements, thereby providing relief from cramps, discomfort, bloating, and pain. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that works by blocking an enzyme called gastric proton pump, which is responsible for acid production. CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM+PANTOPRAZOLE is also used to relieve stomach cramps, bloating, and pain in the stomach and intestine.
