Librax 5 mg/2.5 mg Tablet is prescribed to manage irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which includes symptoms like abdominal pain, cramps, bloating, and irregular bowel movements such as diarrhea or constipation. This medication helps relieve stomach discomfort by preventing sudden muscle spasms and promoting the easy release of gas.

Usage Instructions:
Librax should be taken on an empty stomach, following the dosage and treatment duration recommended by your healthcare provider. The exact dose depends on your specific condition and how you respond to the treatment. It is important to continue the medication for the full prescribed period to avoid symptom recurrence or worsening of the condition. Inform your doctor about any other medications you are using, as some drugs can interact with Librax.

Side Effects:
Common side effects may include nausea, constipation, memory issues, blurred vision, dry mouth, difficulty urinating, dizziness, sleepiness, and impaired coordination. Most side effects tend to diminish over time as your body adjusts. If you experience severe or persistent symptoms, contact your healthcare provider promptly. Since this medication can cause drowsiness and dizziness, avoid driving or engaging in tasks that require full alertness until you know how it affects you. Alcohol should be avoided as it can intensify these effects.

Lifestyle Tips:
To enhance treatment outcomes, consider dietary adjustments such as eating fiber-rich foods, avoiding known trigger foods, increasing fluid intake, and maintaining regular exercise. Inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver issues, or if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Conditions Treated:

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

How Librax Works:
Librax combines two active components: Chlordiazepoxide, a benzodiazepine, and Clidinium, an anticholinergic agent. Chlordiazepoxide works by enhancing the action of GABA, a brain chemical that calms excessive nerve activity. Clidinium helps relax the muscles of the digestive tract, preventing spasms that cause pain, cramps, and bloating.

Important Safety Information:

Avoid alcohol while taking Librax.
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using this medication.
This medication may impair your ability to drive or operate machinery. Use caution.
Patients with kidney or liver disease should use Librax under medical supervision, as dosage adjustments may be necessary.

Missed Dose:
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not take a double dose to make up for the missed one. Resume your usual dosing schedule.
