TIROPRAMIDE belongs to a class of drugs called 'antispasmodics' (spasm and cramp reliever). It primarily treats and relieves symptoms such as abdominal pain and cramps associated with irritable bowel syndrome.
TIROPRAMIDE contains Tiropramide, an antispasmodic drug that works by relaxing the muscles in the walls of the intestine. Thus, it provides relief from painful muscle spasms and reduces stomach pain.
TIROPRAMIDE should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. This medicine may cause certain side effects such as dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, constipation, or allergic reactions. Most of these side effects of TIROPRAMIDE do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are known to be allergic to TIROPRAMIDE or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using the TIROPRAMIDE. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines you are taking before taking TIROPRAMIDE to rule out any side effects or interactions. Avoiding alcohol is recommended to rule out any possibility of side effects. Safety and effectiveness have not been established for children under 12 years of age.
