How Pedicol Products work
Dicyclomine + Dimethicone is a combination of two medicines: Dicyclomine + Dimethicone1 and Dicyclomine + Dimethicone2. Dicyclomine + Dimethicone1 is an antispasmodic which works by relaxing the muscles in your stomach and gut (intestine). It stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms), thereby relieving abdominal cramps and pain. Dicyclomine + Dimethicone2 is an antifoaming medicine which disintegrates gas bubbles and allows easy passage of gas.
