Re: Buscopan

Paul HMember

Hi all, I've started taking 20mgs of Buscopan 30 minutes before meals, breakfast & dinner, and movements have reduced from 8-12 per day to around 6. I'm so pleased. However I'm still quite loose so have 2 questions please,

1. Is it safe to use Buscopan for long periods at this dose?

2. Is it safe to mix with Cipro and/or Rifaxamin?

I would ask my GI but you guys seem to have more practical knowledge of these things. Indeed I am only trying this solution after reading about it here.

With thanks

Paul

Buscopan isn’t available in the US, so fewer folks than usual here will have had experience with it. If you want to thicken up your stool, soluble fiber (like psyllium husk) is the usual method. It’s low risk and easy to try.

Thanks, believe it's called Scopolamine in US. Hyoscine butylbromide. An anti spasmodic.

Tried Psylium husk but not so good. In fact I've tried everything & concluded that 8-12 movements is how it's going to be, but then I look for solutions after getting so fed up. To be honest I'm giving up & accepting 8-12 as s normal.
