Uses of Lycospas Syrup in children

Benefits of Lycospas Syrup for your child

In Treatment of Irritable bowel syndrome

Irritable bowel syndrome is a chronic (long-term) inflammatory disease of the large intestine (colon) that usually needs long-term management. This can lead to bleeding, frequent diarrhea, bloating, flatulence, cramps, and stomach pain. Lycospas Syrup relaxes the muscles in your stomach and gut (intestine) and relieves these symptoms effectively. Usually, it is used as an add-on medicine along with other medicines which are given for the management of your child’s condition. Continue giving it to your child for as long as the doctor may advise you to.

Side effects of Lycospas Syrup in children

Lycospas Syrup does not pose serious side effects and is well-tolerated by children. In case the side effects do occur, they’re likely to subside once the body adapts to the medicine. Consult your child’s doctor if these side effects persist or bother your child. The most common side effects include-

How can I give Lycospas Syrup to my child?

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Lycospas Syrup is to be taken with food.

How Lycospas Syrup works

Lycospas Syrup is a mixture of two active medicines Dicyclomine, an antispasmodic agent, and Simethicone, an antifoaming medicine. Dicyclomine works by relaxing the muscles in your stomach and gut (intestine). It stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms), thereby relieving abdominal cramps and pain. Whereas, Simethicone disintegrates gas bubbles and allows easy passage of gas.

Quick tips

  • Inform your doctor if you experience severe or long-lasting pain in your stomach.
  • Give your child a diet that is rich in fiber and low in fermentable sugars.
  • Avoid giving gas-producing foods to your child such as beans, onions, carrots, raisins, and bananas.
  • Encourage your child to exercise daily as it has potential benefits in constipation and in improving overall wellbeing.
  • In children less than 2 months of age, do not give Lycospas Syrup without ruling out the reasons that might be making your child cry. Give Lycospas Syrup only if your child shows actual signs of abdominal discomfort or pain after consulting your child’s doctor.
  • Children may experience abdominal pain due to migraines. The other associated symptoms can be a headache, nausea, anorexia vomiting, and pallor. Since Lycospas Syrup is strictly for abdominal pain, rule out such types of pain before giving this medicine.
