CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM is a combination of two medicines: Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium. Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that decreases abnormal activity in the brain. It interferes with the chemical messenger’s activity that passes messages to the brain cells, providing a calming effect. It can also reduce anxiety related to gastrointestinal disorders. Clidinium is an anticholinergic that acts by decreasing stomach acid production. It helps to provide relief from stomach spasms and cramps. Together, CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM can be effectively used to treat gastrointestinal disorders such as peptic ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and enterocolitis (swelling in the intestine).
CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM is available in the form of capsules. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM may cause side-effects such as dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation, nausea, bloating, urination problems, drowsiness, dizziness, rash, swelling, irregular menstrual periods, and increased or decreased libido (sexual desire). Inform your doctor if any of these side-effects persist or get worsen.
Do not take CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM if you are allergic to Chlordiazepoxide, Clidinium, or any other ingredients present in it. Before taking CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM, inform your doctor if you have glaucoma (increased pressure inside the eye), enlarged prostate, difficulty urinating, heart problems, liver, or kidney diseases, depression, alcohol abuse, and high blood pressure. CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE+CLIDINIUM is not recommended for use in children. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
