Medicinal Benefits

Coliwin Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium. Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that decreases abnormal activity in the brain. It interferes with the chemical messenger's activity that passes messages to the brain cells, providing a calming effect. It can also reduce anxiety related to gastrointestinal disorders. Clidinium is an anticholinergic that acts by decreasing stomach acid production. It helps to provide relief from stomach spasms and cramps. Together, Coliwin Tablet can be effectively used to treat gastrointestinal disorders such as peptic ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and enterocolitis (swelling in the intestine).
