Ranidic Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Ranidic Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients:

• Dicyclomine (10 mg): As an antispasmodic, dicyclomine relaxes the smooth muscles of your gut, which helps in relieving spasms and cramps in your stomach and intestines. It acts by inhibiting the action of acetylcholine at muscarinic receptors in your gut and reduces gastrointestinal secretions and peristalsis

• Ranitidine (150 mg): As an H2 blocker antacid, ranitidine reduces stomach acid production. It binds to an H2 receptor on the gastric parietal cell, blocking histamine effects. This action leads to a reduction in gastric acid secretion, gastric volume, and hydrogen ion concentration

Together, the antispasmodic and antacid actions of dicyclomine and ranitidine help in managing common IBS symptoms.
