Is it safe to use Stelbid for a long period of time?
No, it is generally not recommended to use this medication for a long period. This medicine combines trifluoperazine and isopropamide, which are highly effective for short-term relief of stomach spasms and associated anxiety. However, prolonged use can increase the risk of side effects like dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and rare muscle movement issues. It is designed for short-term relief, typically up to a few weeks. I advise consulting your doctor to review your treatment plan and discuss safer long-term options for managing your symptoms, ensuring your treatment remains both safe and effective.
