What is Mebeverine Hydrochloride?

Mebeverine, the active ingredient in Mebeverine Teva, is an antispasmodic presented as an oral tablet for oral use.

It works by relaxing smooth muscle in the gastrointestinal tract, helping to normalize bowel movements.

Irritable bowel syndrome: alleviates abdominal pain, cramping and irregular bowel habits associated with the condition. Functional gastrointestinal disorders: reduces spasmodic episodes and improves patient comfort. Spastic colon: diminishes colonic muscle contractions, helping to normalize transit.

Frequently asked questions

What conditions is Mebeverine Teva used for?+
Mebeverine Teva is prescribed to manage irritable bowel syndrome and other functional gastrointestinal disorders by reducing smooth‑muscle spasms that cause abdominal pain, cramping, and irregular bowel movements.
How does mebeverine work in the body?+
Mebeverine acts as a direct relaxant of gastrointestinal smooth muscle, likely by inhibiting calcium influx into muscle cells. This reduces the intensity of spasms without impairing normal gut motility.
What is the usual dose of mebeverine?+
The dosage of mebeverine is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s condition, age, and response to therapy. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not adjust the dose on their own.
Is Mebeverine safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for mebeverine in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should only be used if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant, and the decision must be made by a qualified healthcare provider.
How do I order Mebeverine Teva from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Mebeverine compare with other antispasmodics?+
Mebeverine is a direct smooth‑muscle relaxant that does not possess significant anticholinergic activity, which can make it better tolerated than some anticholinergic antispasmodics that often cause dry mouth and urinary retention.

Store the tablets at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in the original container to protect them from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.

Mebeverine Teva is taken orally, usually with a glass of water. The exact timing (e.g., before meals) and frequency should follow the prescribing clinician’s directions.
What are the most serious risks associated with Mebeverine?+
Serious risks, though rare, include severe allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, angioedema, and rare skin conditions like Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Any signs of hypersensitivity require immediate medical attention.
Who should not use Mebeverine Teva?+
Patients with known hypersensitivity to mebeverine or any of its excipients should avoid the product. Caution is also advised for individuals with severe hepatic or renal impairment, and those taking strong anticholinergic or MAOI medications.
