Supplied in packs of 30, 60, 90 or 180 tablets. Originator brand: <strong>Colofac<\/strong> (Abbott \/ Mylan \/ Viatris). In clinical use since the 1960s and one of the most widely prescribed drugs for IBS globally.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike older antispasmodics (hyoscine butylbromide, dicyclomine, propantheline) that work by blocking muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and cause dry mouth, blurred vision, urinary retention, and palpitations, mebeverine is a <strong>musculotropic antispasmodic<\/strong> &mdash; it acts directly on smooth muscle cells without engaging the autonomic nervous system. This means essentially no anticholinergic side effects at standard doses.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Colospa Used For?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>\u2014 funkcion\u00e1lis zavar ny\u00e1lkahurut n\u00e9lk\u00fcl.

It does not address bloating, gas, constipation, or the psychological component &mdash; these may need additional strategies (peppermint oil, dietary FODMAP modification, psyllium, PEG laxatives, central modulators like low-dose amitriptyline).<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Colospa Work?<\/h2>\n<p>The precise molecular mechanism of mebeverine is still debated, but the best-characterised actions include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Blockade of voltage-gated sodium channels<\/strong> on intestinal smooth muscle cells &mdash; reduces excitability<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inhibition of calcium influx<\/strong> during muscle contraction &mdash; relaxes spasm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Normalisation of gut motility<\/strong> &mdash; mebeverine reduces hyper-contraction without inducing atony, so peristalsis is preserved<\/li>\n<li><strong>No anticholinergic effect<\/strong> &mdash; does not bind muscarinic receptors at therapeutic doses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mebeverine is highly metabolised on first-pass through the liver.

It is metabolised by esterases rather than CYP enzymes, so it is relatively interaction-free.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No meaningful interaction with common IBS co-medications (peppermint oil, loperamide, laxatives).<\/li>\n<li>No effect on warfarin INR or oral contraceptive levels.<\/li>\n<li>No clinically significant interaction with alcohol.<\/li>\n<li>Caution combining with other anticholinergic antispasmodics (hyoscine, dicyclomine) &mdash; usually unnecessary and may increase GI transit variability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Should Not Take Colospa?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Known hypersensitivity to mebeverine<\/li>\n<li>Paralytic ileus &mdash; although mebeverine preserves peristalsis, it is not appropriate when gut motility is already absent<\/li>\n<li>Children under 10 years (below the label age)<\/li>\n<li>Pregnancy &mdash; generally avoided in the first trimester unless benefit outweighs risk; limited data but no teratogenic signal<\/li>\n<li>Breastfeeding &mdash; limited data; alternative non-pharmacological management usually preferred<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">T\u00e1rol\u00e1s<\/h2>\n<p>Store Colospa below 30&deg;C in a dry place, in the original blister. Keep out of reach of children.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faqs\">Gyakran Ism\u00e9telt K\u00e9rd\u00e9sek<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Colospa the same as Colofac?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes &mdash; Colospa contains the same active ingredient (mebeverine hydrochloride) at the same strength as Colofac (Abbott \/ Viatris). Bioequivalence to the originator is required by regulatory authorities, so clinical effect is the same at the same dose.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long does it take Colospa to work?<\/h3>\n<p>Onset of smooth-muscle relaxation is 30&ndash;60 minutes after a dose; noticeable reduction in cramps usually within the first day or two. Full effect on symptom frequency often takes 1&ndash;2 weeks of regular dosing. If there is no improvement after 4 weeks at full dose, reconsider the diagnosis or add a second IBS strategy (dietary FODMAP, peppermint oil, central modulator).<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Colospa cause drowsiness or dry mouth?<\/h3>\n<p>No &mdash; mebeverine is not sedating and does not have anticholinergic effects at therapeutic doses. This is the main reason it is preferred over hyoscine or dicyclomine for long-term IBS management, especially in drivers, older adults, or patients on other medications.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take Colospa every day long-term?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes &mdash; long-term daily use of mebeverine is safe and commonly continued for months or years in chronic IBS. Many patients use it daily during symptomatic periods and pause when symptoms settle.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take Colospa with peppermint oil capsules?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes &mdash; the combination is a sensible stacking strategy for IBS pain. Peppermint oil has a different mechanism (calcium-channel blockade in smooth muscle) and adds modest benefit. Take enteric-coated peppermint oil before meals, ideally at the same time as mebeverine.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Colospa help with bloating or constipation?<\/h3>\n<p>Mebeverine&rsquo;s strength is cramping and pain. It has little direct effect on bloating or constipation. For bloating, consider dietary FODMAP restriction and simethicone; for IBS-C (constipation-predominant), consider fibre modulation, PEG laxatives, or linaclotide.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I drink alcohol while taking Colospa?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, moderate alcohol is fine with mebeverine. Be aware that alcohol is a common IBS trigger and may worsen symptoms independent of the medicine.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where can I buy Colospa online?<\/h3>\n<p>You can order Colospa (135 mg) from MedsBase in packs of 30, 60, 90 or 180 tablets.
