Abstract

The effect of tiropramide hydrochloride--a new spasmolytic drug with calmodulin-independent activity--in correcting alterations of intestinal transit, has been investigated in 40 IBS patients (20 with accelerated and 20 with delayed transit time). Intestinal transit has been evaluated by means of radioopaque markers. Tiropramide hydrochloride, at a dose of 100 mg t.i.d. for 4 weeks, was found significantly more effective than placebo both in normalizing intestinal transit time and in inducing symptomatic relief.
