About Libratex Tablet
Libratex Tablet is used in the treatment of peptic ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and enterocolitis (swelling in the intestine). Peptic ulcers are sores that develop on the stomach and intestinal lining due to erosion of the stomach's protective lining. Irritable bowel syndrome is a group of intestinal symptoms that occur together. Enterocolitis is an inflammation of the digestive tract caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, or other causes.
Libratex Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium. Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that decreases abnormal activity in the brain. It interferes with the chemical messenger's activity that passes messages to the brain cells, providing a calming effect and relaxing muscles. Clidinium is an anticholinergic that acts by decreasing stomach acid production. It helps to provide relief from stomach spasms and cramps.
Libratex Tablet is available in the form of capsules. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Libratex Tablet may cause side effects such as dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation, nausea, bloating, urination problems, drowsiness, dizziness, rash, swelling, irregular menstrual periods, and increased or decreased libido (sexual desire). Inform your doctor if any of these side effects persist or get worse.
Do not take Libratex Tablet if you are allergic to Chlordiazepoxide, Clidinium, or any other ingredients present in it. Before taking Libratex Tablet , inform your doctor if you have glaucoma (increased pressure inside the eye), enlarged prostate, difficulty urinating, heart problems, liver or kidney diseases, depression, alcohol abuse, or high blood pressure. Libratex Tablet is not recommended for use in children. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
