What is Dicyclomine?

Dicyclomine, also known as Dicycloverine, is the active ingredient that makes up the brand-name medication Bentyl. It is an anticholinergic and antispasmodic drug that has been used in medicine since 1950. Bentyl contains 10 or 20 mg of Dicyclomine; at My Drug Center, we carry the 10mg capsule of Bentyl. A valid prescription will be required to obtain this medication.

 

What is Dicyclomine used for?

Dicyclomine (Bentyl) is used for both functional and irritable bowel syndrome. Within these conditions, the muscles in the stomach and/or intestine can spasm. Spasms can occur after mild stimulation or normal events such as eating or bloating from gas; even stress can cause a spasm to occur. These spasms cause sudden severe pain in the abdominal, especially the lower left abdomen. Using Bentyl can help treat the stomach and intestinal spasms that occur within these conditions.

 

What does Bentyl do?

Bentyl belongs to the drug class of anticholinergics. These types of drugs have an effect on certain muscles in the stomach and intestine called smooth muscles. Bentyl relaxes these muscles which help to relieve the spasms. Additionally, Bentyl can slow the natural movement that occurs inside your gut.

 

How long does Bentyl stay in your system?

Bentyl will likely remain in the system for around 25 hours following your last dose. Keep in mind, this is only an estimation as to how long it may take; the exact length of time will vary. You can estimate how long a drug may remain in the system for by multiplying the half-life of the drug by 5; Bentyl has a half-life of 5 hours.

 

How quickly does Bentyl work?

The medication will begin to work fairly quickly as peak concentrations are seen within 60-90 minutes after administration. Therefore, you may find relief in your system about 1-2 hours after your first dose.

 

How long does Bentyl last?

The effects will likely persist for a different length of time for each individual using the medication. Each patient has many personal factors that may influence how long Bentyl remains effective for. Generally, Bentyl effects last for around 6 hours. Though, some patients report feeling relief for up to 10 hours.

 

What are the side effects of Dicyclomine?

Some common side effects of Dicyclomine include dizziness, drowsiness, lightheadedness, weakness, blurred vision, dry eyes or mouth, and nausea. Most side effects, such as the ones mentioned, should not alarm you. However, you should consult your doctor if they persist or become unmanageable. Keep in mind, not all side effects have been listed here.

 

How to take Dicyclomine? 

Your doctor will go over everything you need to know when prescribing the medication to you, including how and when to take Dicyclomine for the best results. Follow those directions very carefully.
