Just some info - Spasmo-Proxyvon is the name of Dicyclomine in India. Dicyclomine is used to treat irritable bowel syndrome in the United States.

According to the FDA, there is little to no addiction potential with this medication.

Are you taking this made prescribe from a doctor? What was it prescribed for? Why do you feel that you are addicted? Have you tried to stop taking it? What happens if and when you do stop taking it?

Spasmo Proxyvon contains dextropropoxyphene which is a weak opioid (opium-like) agent. You should gradually reduce the dose slowly but steadily and surely over the next few weeks  . There are LOTS of people in india addicted to this .

hmmm...that explains it...I was wondering how someone could get addicted to dicyclomine. But since its for IBS, I can see why they would add and opiate to it.
