Dicyclomine Syrup


Generic Name: Dicyclomine Syrup and Oral Solution (dye-SYE-kloe-meen)
Brand Name: Bentyl

Dicyclomine Syrup is used for:

Treatment of the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Dicyclomine Syrup is an anticholinergic. It works by blocking a chemical in the smooth muscle of the stomach and intestines causing them to relax, which reduces cramping.

Do NOT use Dicyclomine Syrup if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Dicyclomine Syrup
  • you have blockage of the esophagus, stomach, intestine, or urinary tract
  • you have heart problems due to severe bleeding
  • you have glaucoma
  • you have inflammation of the esophagus due to acid reflux, loss of strength in the intestinal muscles, or chronic inflammation and ulceration of the bowels
  • you have myasthenia gravis (a condition in which the muscles become progressively paralyzed)
  • you are breast-feeding

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
