How Dicyclomine + Magaldrate + Oxetacaine + Simethicone works

  • Dicyclomine + Magaldrate + Oxetacaine + Simethicone is a combination medicine.

  • Dicyclomine is an antispasmodic. It works by blocking a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which helps to relax and reduce muscle contractions in the digestive tract thus relieving abdominal pain.

  • Magaldrate is an antacid. It neutralises stomach acid by reacting with it, leading to less acidic pH levels in the stomach and helping to relieve heartburn.

  • Oxetacaine is a local anaesthetic. It blocks the transmission of pain signals from the stomach and esophagus by interrupting the voltage-gated sodium channels on nerve cells, providing relief from stomach pain.

  • Simethicone is an anti-foaming agent. It reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles in the digestive system, enabling them to combine into larger bubbles that are easier to pass through belching or flatulence, thereby reducing bloating and discomfort.
