Duopharma Beamotil Tablet 10s (Strip)

Duopharma Beamotil Tablet is an antipropulsive (anti-diarrhoeal) medication that combines two active ingredients — diphenoxylate, which helps slow bowel movements, and a small amount of atropine, included to discourage misuse at higher doses. If you're taking this medicine for the first time, you may be wondering how it fits into managing diarrhoea. It is used alongside fluid and electrolyte replacement, as replacing lost fluids remains an important part of recovery. The tablets should be swallowed whole and should not be chewed or crushed.

Some people may experience side effects such as dizziness, dry mouth, or drowsiness. Because the formulation contains atropine, effects such as a faster heart rate may also occur, particularly if alcohol is consumed while taking the medication. Once diarrhoea is under control, the medicine should be used at the lowest effective dose, and it is not intended for indefinite long-term use without medical supervision.

As with any medication that affects bowel motility, it is advisable to speak with your doctor or pharmacist before starting treatment if you have liver or kidney conditions, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

The typical adult starting dose is 5mg (2 tablets) taken 4 times daily. Once diarrhoea is adequately controlled, the dose may be reduced to 5mg daily as directed by your doctor. The maximum recommended dose is 20mg (8 tablets) per day, and this should not be exceeded unless specifically advised by your doctor.

• Confusion (uncommon, more likely with excessive use)
• Palpitations or increased heart rate (related to the atropine component)

Swallow the tablets whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablets. Take this medication exactly as directed by your doctor, and continue drinking adequate fluids to help replace lost fluids and support rehydration while treating diarrhoea.

Duopharma Beamotil Tablet generally has a shelf life of 2–3 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly in its unopened packaging. Always check the expiry date printed on the blister strip and outer carton before use, and do not use the medication after it has expired.

• Atropine Sulfate – Included at a low dose to help discourage excessive use or misuse.

Duopharma Beamotil Tablet may have additive effects when taken with alcohol or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants, which can increase the risk of drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, and palpitations. It is recommended to avoid alcohol while taking this medication.

Inform your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products you are taking, especially medications that may also affect the central nervous system or heart rate, to help reduce the risk of potential drug interactions.
