FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Symptomatic relief of bowel, cramps, bloating and abdominal pain
Colpermin is a herbal medicinal drug especially meant for irritable colon syndrome, also known as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Colpermin capsules contain 187mg of peppermint oil and are indicated for the symptomatic treatment of:
- abdominal pain
- minor spasms of the gastrointestinal tract
- bloating
- flatulence
Colpermin’s active substance, which is pure, natural peppermint oil, relieves IBS symptoms by acting in 2 ways (dual acting):
- Relaxing spasm of the bowel wall. It does this by acting on one of the root causes of cramps in the wall of your gut to stop cramping and relieve pain.
- Helping trapped gas to pass along the bowel and out of the body. This relieves bloating and flatulence.
The capsule outer coating does not dissolve until it reaches the small intestine. Therefore, no peppermint oil can be released until the small intestine.
The gel inside the capsule releases the peppermint oil continuously as it moves along the gut. Delivering relief to the areas of the gut where it may be needed.
