Indications

Telabid may be employed to advantage in the treatment of a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders, including such conditions as peptic ulcer, gastritis, hyperchlorhydria, functional diarrhea, irritable or spastic colon, pyloroduodenal irritability, pylorospasm, acute nonspecific gastroenteritis, biliary dyskinesia and chronic cholelithiasis, duodenitis, gastrointestinal spasm; it may also be used to treat genitourinary spasm. Telabid is particularly indicated where anxiety, tension, worry, or other emotional factors are thought to be wholly or partially responsible for the digestive dysfunction

Pharmacology

Trifluoperazine inhibits dopamine D2 receptors in the brain. It has weak anticholinergic and sedative effects but strong extrapyramidal and antiemetic effects. It controls severely disturbed, agitated or violent behaviour but may also be used for nonpsychotic anxiety.

Dosage & Administration

Since both components of this preparation are inherently long-acting, a single tablet twice daily (every 12 hours) can provide continuous 24-hour control of symptoms of ulcer and other gastrointestinal disorders.

In addition to the convenience of twice-daily dosage, this tablet can provide significant therapeutic advantages: continuous reduction of gastric secretion; continuous inhibition of spasm and motility; continuous relief of anxiety and tension; continuous control of nausea and vomiting.
