Dicyclomine 20 mg

Hi, Dear members, I need help from anyone who has experiences taking the medication Dicyclomine. I am suffering from severe abdominal pain and the ER doctor prescribed it to relieve the pain. I hesitate to take it for fear of aggravating my RLS. It is an anticholinergic medication. Do you think if it will exacerbate the restless legs? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Thank you Sue, what is your opinion regarding Colofac (Membererine), if it is friendly I will go to my GP to change to Colofac.

Thanks, Sue. Unfortunately we don't have this product in the USA.

Another possibility is hyoscyamine (Levsin) - I can't find anything that says it makes RLS worse. If you try it, let me know if it is OK
