What is Mebeverine?

Mebeverine is a smooth muscle relaxant that is used for intestinal disorders like irritable bowel syndrome or IBS. Mebeverine, as an antispasmodic treatment, is effective at relaxing the muscles surrounding your intestine and uterus. Its use reduces stomach cramping, a common symptom of IBS.

What is Mebeverine used for?

Mebeverine is used to provide relief for irritable bowel syndrome and related intestinal disorders caused by spasms of the intestinal muscles, including chronic irritable colon, mucous colitis, spastic constipation, and spastic colitis.

How does Mebeverine work?

Mebeverine 135mg is a type of medicine called smooth muscle relaxant and is a treatment for the medical condition Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). It is the active ingredient in the popular IBS medicine Colofac.

Smooth muscle is a muscle type that is not under voluntary control. It is the muscle that is found in places like the walls of the intestines and the womb. Mebeverine directly acts on this type of muscle, causing it to relax.

Mebeverine stops the muscle spasms occurring in the gut in conditions such as IBS and diverticular disease. This relieves the pain that is associated with these conditions.

What are the benefits of taking Mebeverine Tablets?

Mebeverine 135mg tablets are effective in reducing the most common symptom of IBS: stomach cramping. It effectively provides relief for irritable bowel syndrome and related intestinal disorders.

How do I take Mebeverine?

As with all medicines, please read the patient information leaflet before administering.

Mebeverine Interactions

It's safe to take mebeverine with most prescription medicines, and everyday painkillers like paracetamol and ibuprofen.

However, it's generally best not to take it together with other IBS remedies, as these medicines work in the same way.

Do not take more than ONE IBS treatment at a time, unless a doctor advises otherwise. You're unlikely to get extra relief for your symptoms, and it may cause more side effects.

Mebeverine or Buscopan

Buscopan contains the active ingredient Hyoscine which works via a different mechanism to relieve muscle spasms in IBS. Mebeverine is different from Buscopan.
