About Colicure Syrup

Colicure Syrup belongs to a group of medications called anticholinergics/antispasmodics. These medications are primarily used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and colic pain in children. IBS is an inflammatory bowel disease that affects the large intestine. Colic pain is a cramp-like pain caused by muscle spasms in hollow organs like the intestines or ureters.

Colicure Syrup contains ‘Dicyclomine’, also known as Dicycloverine. It works by relaxing the muscles in the stomach and intestines. Also, it blocks certain chemical messengers in the brain that cause pain, helping to prevent spasms and calm gut movements.

Your doctor will advise you on the appropriate dose and duration that suits your child’s medical condition. Some common side effects of Colicure Syrup may include dizziness, drowsiness, light-headedness, weakness, blurred vision, dry eyes, dry mouth, nausea, constipation, and abdominal bloating. Not all children will experience these side effects, and their severity can vary. If the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Before giving this medicine, let your doctor know if your child has any allergies (especially to its ingredients) or any medical conditions. Colicure Syrup should not be used in children under 6 months, as its safety and effectiveness have not been proven for this age group.

Uses of Colicure Syrup

Colicure Syrup is used in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and colic pain in children. The detailed uses of Colicure Syrup are as follows:

  • Treatment of Gastrointestinal Spasms: Colicure Syrup is commonly used to relieve gastrointestinal (GI) spasms, helping ease abdominal discomfort and cramping.
  • Management of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): Colicure Syrup is effective in reducing symptoms of IBS, such as bloating, pain, and irregular bowel movements.

Key Benefits

Colicure Syrup contains ‘Dicyclomine’, also known as Dicycloverine. It belongs to the class of medicines called ‘anticholinergic/antispasmodic agents’. Colicure Syrup effectively treats irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and colic pain in children. It works by blocking the activity of acetylcholine (a chemical messenger that sends signals to nerve cells) by binding to muscarinic receptors on smooth muscle. This process helps relax the smooth muscles, inhibits natural gut movements, decreases gastric acid secretion, and controls excessive gastrointestinal secretions. Thus, Colicure Syrup prevents spasms in the muscles of the stomach and intestines. Colicure Syrup is also used to relieve cramps, bloating, and pain in the stomach and intestine.

Directions for Use

  • Colicure Syrup can be given with or without food.
  • Follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and duration of the medication.
  • Shake well before use. Administer the advised dose to the child using the measuring cup/measuring spoon/dropper.
  • Avoid using regular household spoons, as they may not measure the dose correctly.
