What is Diphenoxylate-Atropine?

Diphenoxylate-Atropine is a combination prescription drug used along with appropriate fluid and electrolyte therapy to treat diarrhea, a condition in which the intestines pass waste too quickly. Severe diarrhea can cause life-threatening dehydration.

While Diphenoxylate-Atropine has two active ingredients, only diphenoxylate treats diarrhea. Diphenoxylate is an opioid. It binds to receptors on nerves in the intestines and slows them down. As a result, diphenoxylate reduces the frequency and intensity of intestinal muscle contractions, which means that material moves through the intestines more slowly.

Diphenoxylate is an opioid that, like all opioids, can cause a “high” when taken in large enough quantities. Atropine helps prevent abuse of the diphenoxylate. It is present in Diphenoxylate-Atropine in subclinical doses that will have no effect. In larger doses, atropine produces unpleasant and even harsh side effects.

Diphenoxylate-Atropine tablets contain 2.5 mg of diphenoxylate and 0.025 mg of atropine. Two tablets are taken four times per day. Improvement in diarrhea symptoms should occur in 48 hours. Diphenoxylate-Atropine is discontinued if no improvement is made in 10 days.

What are the side effects of Diphenoxylate-Atropine?
