I have had intestinal gas for some time: asked my primary care doctor whether there was something simple I could take as I had read that over-the counter meds were not safe. He prescribed dicyclomine 10 mg nightly. The list of side effects sound daunting. What do you recommend? I am quite elderly. ## Hello, Tomyris! How are you? This isn't going to help with gas, as a matter of fact, in other countries, they combine it with an antiflatulent medication to present a medication that helps with more symptoms. This works as a smooth muscle relaxer for the intestines to treat intestinal hypermotility and IBS. Unless you have some medical condition or are on medications that causes them to be contraindicated, over the counter products, such as Simethicone, are generally considered safe. It...

Can this pill be taken along with Nexsum ? ## Did you mean Nexium, which contains the active ingredient Esomeprazole? If so, I am not finding any problems listed between taking the two together, but you should double check with your doctor, or pharmacist to be certain. Some medications can interfere with the absorption of others. Are there any other questions or comments?

Why would this drug be used in a weight loss program? ## I honestly can't say, I read over some more information on it just to be certain that I was remembering correctly, but I didn't find anything that made sense for it to be used to aid in weight loss. Learn more Dicyclomine details here. Do you know someone that's using it for that? ## Dicyclomine has been shown to be associated with an increased incidence of anorexia nervosa-like symptoms as a side effect due to the slowing of the peristolsis (locomotion / contractions) of the GI tract. ## It causes the stomach to empty slower which increases the time you feel full. ## Is anyone having severe cramping after you take it? Feels like contrations for real. ## I have been prescribed Dicyclomine for spasms this week and I hav...

Hi. My Dr prescribed dicyclomine 10 mg 3 times a day. I noticed the amount of side effects and I'm terrified to take it. Should I be this concerned? ## There are risks and possible side effects associated with taking any medication, prescription, or over the counter, this one has about the same amount of them as any other, according to the FDA. Which ones are scaring you? Perhaps those can be addressed to help you feel better about taking it. Are you o any other medications? ## Hi, just the dizzines, blurry vision, and the most serious one which is a lump in my throat and not be able to breathe. But i was having discomfort just before going to work and I decided to take it, and guess what? No side effects what so ever, and it worked almost immediately! I'm glad I did! I also tak...

accidentally took cyclobenzaprine 10mg and dicyclomine 20mg together. Will this cause a negative interaction. ## Hello, Steph! How are you? They both decrease cholinergic effects, so there is a risk of problems occurring. Did you experience any ill effects? It would be best to make sure your doctor knows about this, to be safe. It could also intensify the side effects and you may experience more nausea, dizziness and drowsiness than usual.

How long will Dicyclomine HCL remain usable past the expiration date? ## According to Solco Healthcare, the shelf-life of Bentyl (Dicyclomine) capsules [NDC 43547-634] is listed as 24 months (or 2 years): solcohealthcare.com/product/dicyclomine-capsules However, the following article from the FDA suggests that the listed 2 year shelf-life for Dicyclomine is arbitrary at best, as they declared certain lots of Doxycycline hyclate 100 mg capsules to be eligible for use beyond the manufacturer’s labeled expiration date by up to 7 YEARS for the purpose of strategic reserves and emergency preparedness: fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/mcm-legal-regulatory-and-policy-framework/expiration-date-extensions-certain-lots-doxycycline-hyclate-capsules “Most of what is known abo...

I am on day 3 OF NITROFURAN MONOHYD MACRO 100MG 100 mg for urinary track infection every 12hrs, I have problems with my stomach and have been prescribed DICYCLOMINE 10MG/5ML. (1/2 hr before meals) Is safe to take while taking NUTRIFURAN? ## Hi Virnia, Based on my research, there are no drug interactions listed between Nitrofurantoin and Dicyclomine. So just going off that information alone, I don't think there should be any problems using the two together (outside of each medication's own general side effects). However, if you still have any reservations about taking them, it may be best to call your doctor up and verify that it's ok with him as well. Was it the same doctor who prescribed you the Nitrofurantoin, that also give you the script for Dicyclomine? ## Does macrobid...

Need to know if cyclopam can be given to kids of age 8 suffering from stomach infection. ## Yesm my dictor gave it y o my little b a by. Half tab ## There are several formulations of this medication, but none of them contain anything that will treat an infection. That usually requires an antibiotic, if it is a bacterial infection, according to NIH studies. And when it comes to children, it is always best to err on the side of caution and consult their doctor. The main ingredient in all formulations is Dicyclomine, which helps treat gastrointestinal spasming, it will also not doing anything to help with any type of infection, be it bacterial, or viral, according to FDA studies. Are there any other questions?

dark blue capsule. rugby 3367 ## I had a time finding this one! It is Dicyclomine 10mg, or brand name Bentyl. Basically, it is an anti-diarrhea medication. Used especially for those who have Irritable bowel syndrom, some types of stomach viruses with lots of diarrhea, and stomach cramping. Side effects include drowsiness, nausea, headache, among others. ## While the identification is correct, it is really used to treat various gastrointestinal problems, not just diarrhea. It is an antispasmodic so it helps treat the cramping, issues associated with IBS, and other such problems. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and bloating. Is there anything else I can help with?
