GASTRAZINE CAPSULE is used in children to reduce stomach pain due to spasms, cramps, and bloating. It contains Dicyclomine and Dimethicone, which reduce spasms and pain by relaxing the muscles and blocking certain chemical messengers in the brain responsible for causing the sensation of pain. Also, it treats bloating and releases stomach gas more efficiently. Thus, it helps reduce muscle contractions and pain by acting on the intestine's inner lining, allowing gas bubbles to come together and relieving cramps and spasms. It may cause common side effects such as dry mouth, dizziness, weakness, nervousness, sleepiness, nausea, and headache. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if your child is allergic to any of its components, about all the medications your child is taking, and about pre-existing medical conditions.
