Medical Description
Iborest tablet is a prescription medicine used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and its symptoms like abdominal pain, flatulence, and abdominal spasms. IBS is a chronic disease that causes inflammation of the large intestines. Iborest tablets can also treat abdominal spasms and cramps associated with other conditions like peptic ulcers, diarrhoea, enterocolitis, etc.
The active ingredients in Iborest tablets are Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium. Chlordiazepoxide increases the action of a chemical messenger that lowers the activity of excited nerves and helps treat anxiety associated with IBS.

Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Iborest tablets contain Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium as their main ingredients.
Chlordiazepoxide belongs to the benzodiazepine class of medicine. It increases gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) activity, a chemical messenger that suppresses the excessive and abnormal activity of the nerves in the brain. It results in reducing anxiety associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
Clidinium is an anticholinergic medicine. It reduces stomach acid and decreases bowel spasms, which helps relieve stomach pain and cramps. This combination of therapy helps reduce stomach discomfort, promotes easy gas passing, and reduces bloating.
