Mebeverine

Mebeverine is an antispasmodic medication used to alleviate symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional dyspepsia (upset stomach). It is available as tablets and liquid for oral administration.
Mebeverine works by relaxing the muscles in the gastrointestinal tract, which helps to reduce abdominal cramping, bloating, and pain. It also aids in normalizing bowel movements, making it easier for individuals with IBS to manage their symptoms.
IBS is a common gastrointestinal disorder characterized by abdominal pain, altered bowel habits, and bloating. It is often triggered by stress, dietary factors, or hormonal fluctuations. Functional dyspepsia, on the other hand, is a condition marked by persistent or recurrent discomfort in the upper abdomen, typically accompanied by feelings of fullness or a sensation of food sticking in the chest area.
Mebeverine is typically prescribed as a first-line treatment for IBS and functional dyspepsia when the symptoms are mild to moderate in severity. This medication does not treat the underlying cause of these conditions but rather helps manage the symptoms.
Mebeverine is generally well-tolerated, but some patients may experience side effects such as dizziness, headache, or dry mouth. As with any medication, follow the prescribed dosage and duration to ensure optimal results and avoid potential complications.
