Colpermin Capsules contain peppermint oil, a natural antispasmodic that helps relieve common symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). These include abdominal cramps, bloating, and trapped wind. The capsules work by relaxing the muscles in the intestinal wall, helping to ease spasms and promote more comfortable digestion. Colpermin is suitable for adults and adolescents aged 15 and over who experience occasional flare-ups or long-term gut sensitivity.

Each capsule features a delayed-release coating, which ensures that the peppermint oil reaches the lower bowel, where it can have the most effect. This targeted approach helps reduce upper stomach irritation and improves overall comfort. Colpermin is well tolerated, easy to take, and does not contain synthetic drugs or chemicals.

How It Works

Peppermint oil targets the lower gastrointestinal tract. Once the capsule reaches the bowel, the oil relaxes the smooth muscle lining, reducing spasms caused by IBS. This helps ease discomfort from muscle contractions and allows trapped gas to pass more easily. The special coating protects the oil from breaking down too early in the stomach, ensuring effective delivery to the gut.
