Description
Trimebutine is a medication used to relieve abdominal pain, bloating, and irregular bowel movements often caused by irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or other functional digestive disorders. It acts directly on the muscles of the stomach and intestines, helping them contract in a more balanced and coordinated way. This dual effect, reducing spasms when the muscles are overactive and stimulating them when they are sluggish, makes Trimebutine a versatile treatment for both diarrhea- and constipation-predominant IBS.
The active ingredient, trimebutine maleate, works on the body’s natural opioid receptors in the gut to regulate intestinal motility (the movement of food through the digestive tract). By normalizing muscle contractions, Trimebutine helps reduce cramping pain, gas, and discomfort while restoring a more regular digestive rhythm.
Many people notice improvement within a few days of starting treatment, experiencing less abdominal pain, reduced bloating, and better bowel regularity. The medication is usually taken before meals and can be used for short- or medium-term treatment under medical supervision.
Trimebutine is generally well tolerated. Mild side effects such as nausea, dry mouth, dizziness, or fatigue may occasionally occur but are usually temporary. It should not be taken without consulting a doctor if you have liver problems, severe kidney issues, or known allergies to the active substance.
