How Dicyclomine+Oxethazine+Simethicone works

Dicyclomine relaxes the muscles in the stomach and intestines. It stops sudden muscle contractions. Thus, it helps to relieve symptoms of stomach pain, gut pain, bloating, gas, and discomfort. Oxethazaine is an anaesthetic agent that blocks the passage of pain signals from nerves to the brain, thus helping to relieve the sensation of pain. Additionally, oxethazaine increases the stomach PH and neutralizes the gastric acid, thereby relieving hyperacidity problems. Simethicone is an antiflatulent that prevents excess gas production by breaking up the gas bubbles, which makes the elimination of gases easier.
