Propantheline is an anticholinergic drug, a medication that reduces the effect of acetylcholine, a chemical released from nerves that stimulates muscles, by blocking the receptors for acetylcholine on smooth muscle (a type of muscle). It also has a direct relaxing effect on smooth muscle. Propantheline is used to treat or prevent spasm in the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract in the irritable bowel syndrome. In addition, Propantheline inhibits gastrointestinal propulsive motility and decreases gastric acid secretion and controls excessive pharyngeal, tracheal and bronchial secretions.
- Mechanism of action
Action is achieved via a dual mechanism: (1) a specific anticholinergic effect (antimuscarinic) at the acetylcholine-receptor sites and (2) a direct effect upon smooth muscle (musculotropic).

Drug Interaction Integrate drug-drug
interactions in your software1,2-Benzodiazepine 1,2-Benzodiazepine may increase the central nervous system depressant (CNS depressant) activities of Propantheline. Abacavir Propantheline may decrease the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a higher serum level. Aceclofenac Aceclofenac may decrease the excretion rate of Propantheline which could result in a higher serum level. Acemetacin Acemetacin may decrease the excretion rate of Propantheline which could result in a higher serum level. Acetaminophen Acetaminophen may decrease the excretion rate of Propantheline which could result in a higher serum level. Acetazolamide Acetazolamide may increase the central nervous system depressant (CNS depressant) activities of Propantheline. Acetophenazine Acetophenazine may increase the central nervous system depressant (CNS depressant) activities of Propantheline. Acetylsalicylic acid Acetylsalicylic acid may decrease the excretion rate of Propantheline which could result in a higher serum level. Aclidinium The risk or severity of adverse effects can be increased when Propantheline is combined with Aclidinium. Acrivastine Propantheline may decrease the excretion rate of Acrivastine which could result in a higher serum level.
