DICYCLOVERINE

Dicycloverine, also called Dicyclomine, is used to treat spasms in the intestines, that occur in irritable bowel syndrome more specifically hypermotility in adults. In 2016, dicycloverine and other antispasmodics were recommended in the treatment of IBS with diarrhea as a first-line treatment and sometimes for Baby colic but the evidence of efficacy for these two uses is still small and to be verified. Dicycloverine is sold under the brand names Colicon and Cyclopean among others. William S. Merrell Company first synthesized it chemically in the United States in 1945. Dicycloverine was approved by FDA for sales in the United States by 1950..however, since the expiry of its initial patent protection, is made and sold by several companies as a generic medication. With more than 3 million prescriptions in the USA alone, it is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs in the USA.

The Price of Dicycloverine

How does it work?

Dicyclomine acts rapidly, it does this partially by a direct antimuscarinic activity of the M1 and M2 receptors, and antagonism of bradykinin and histamine. Dicyclomine actions inhibit actions of bradykinin and histamine, non-competitively. This results in direct action on the smooth muscle. It also decreases the strength of contractions in spasms of the ileum.
