Clichlo-D Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat irritable bowel syndrome, peptic ulcers, enterocolitis (swelling in the intestine), and symptoms related to intestinal infection. Irritable bowel syndrome is a common disease that affects the large intestine. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the lining of the stomach and intestine due to erosion of the stomach protective lining.
Clichlo-D Tablet is a combination of three drugs, namely: Clidinium (anti-cholinergic), Chlordiazepoxide (benzodiazepine), and Dicyclomine (anti-cholinergic). Clidinium works by reducing stomach acid and decreases intestinal spasms. Dicyclomine helps in decreasing stomach cramps and spasms. Chlordiazepoxide decreases abnormal activity in the brain.
