Colofac (Mebeverine Hydrochloride) - 135mg (90 Tablets)

What is Colofac?
Colofac containing the active ingredient mebeverine is considered an antispasmodics type of medication. It works by smoothing the intestinal muscles in the gut to cause them to relax. The medication is used to treat symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) such as stomach pain or spasms, feeling bloated, flatulence and diarrhea alternating with constipation.

How is Colofac used?
Colofac is usually taken approximately 20 minutes prior to consuming a meal or as directed by a doctor. The tablets should be swallowed whole along with a full glass of water. Contact a doctor for the correct dosage and length of treatment as it will depend on the patient's condition and their response to the therapy. The doctor may reduce your dosage as symptoms improve.

Adverse effects
Colofac is generally very well tolerated but patients may encounter unwanted side effects such as:

• Swelling of the face, mouth or tongue
