Introduction to Dep Tablet

Dep Tablet contains Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium, which are commonly prescribed to treat various stomach and intestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and peptic ulcers.  Chlordiazepoxide belongs to the benzodiazepine class of drugs known for their calming effects, while Clidinium is an anticholinergic agent that helps reduce stomach acid and intestinal spasms.

Chlordiazepoxide works by acting on the brain and nerves to produce a calming effect, which can be beneficial in managing the stress or anxiety that often exacerbates stomach and intestinal issues.  Clidinium, on the other hand, works by decreasing natural movements and secretions in the stomach and intestines, providing relief from spasms and reducing acid production.

It is usually taken orally, often before meals and at bedtime, following your doctor's exact instructions. The dosage may vary based on your medical condition and response to treatment.

Patients with glaucoma, enlarged prostate, certain heart conditions, or urinary retention should use this medication cautiously.  It's also important to avoid alcohol and certain other medications that can cause drowsiness.

Possible side effects include dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision, dry mouth, or constipation.  If these effects persist or worsen, contact your healthcare provider.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule.  Do not double the dose to catch up.
