Molecule Description

Dicycloverine / Dicyclomine+Diclofenac Sodium is a medicine used to relieve abdominal pain and cramps. It is a combined medication containing diclofenac and dicycloverine/dicyclomine as active ingredients. The diclofenac in this medicine works by blocking the formation of prostaglandins, which are chemicals responsible for pain, swelling, and inflammation. Dicycloverine inhibits the action of acetylcholine on muscarinic receptors in the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in muscle relaxation. This medicine will be administered as an injection by a healthcare professional in a hospital or clinic. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the underlying condition. Before commencing treatment with this medication, you should inform your doctor if you smoke, have diabetes, a blood clotting disorder, a heart condition, etc. Avoid getting overheated in hot weather, as this medication can decrease sweating and increase the risk of heatstroke.
