The Pharmacist’s Take By · Clinical pharmacist · Written

Chlordiazepoxide and clidinium (Librax), an older standby on the market since about 1966 and available as a generic, pairs a benzodiazepine, a calming medicine, with an anticholinergic that eases gut spasms and slows the bowel, for digestive disorders where stress plays a part and as an add-on for peptic ulcer, irritable bowel syndrome and acute enterocolitis. The usual complaints are drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation and blurred vision, and older adults are prone to confusion and unsteadiness. Its boxed warning covers deep sedation and slowed breathing with opioids, plus addiction and dependence, so avoid alcohol and opioids unless your prescriber says otherwise and never stop suddenly, since withdrawal can cause seizures.

Clinical pearls

  • Take each dose before meals and at bedtime, the schedule the label describes for this capsule.
  • Do not take it if you have glaucoma, an enlarged prostate or a bladder neck blockage.
  • Combining it with other spasm-relieving medicines makes constipation more likely, so list every gut medicine you use.
  • With long-term use, expect periodic blood counts and liver tests, and report yellowing skin or eyes promptly.

⚠️ FDA Boxed Warning — the FDA’s strongest safety alert ▾

Taking this medicine with opioids can cause extreme sleepiness, slowed breathing, coma and death. It should be combined only when no other options work, at the lowest dose for the shortest time.

The benzodiazepine in it can also lead to abuse, misuse and addiction, which can cause overdose or death. The risk rises with other medicines, alcohol or illicit substances.

With continued use your body can become physically dependent. Stopping suddenly or cutting the dose quickly can cause withdrawal reactions that may be life-threatening, such as seizures. Higher doses and longer use raise the risk. Your prescriber should taper the dose gradually.

Patient information guide A plain-language walkthrough of Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium, written from its FDA label.

What Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium is used for

▾

This combination capsule is used for digestive conditions with an emotional component. The label lists these uses for the generic capsules and for Librax:

  • Controlling emotional and somatic (physical) factors in gastrointestinal disorders
  • Add-on treatment for peptic ulcer
  • Add-on treatment for irritable bowel syndrome (irritable colon, spastic colon, mucous colitis)
  • Add-on treatment for acute enterocolitis

How Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium works

▾

Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine. Animal studies suggest it acts on the limbic system of the brain, which is involved in emotional responses. Clidinium is an anticholinergic. It blocks acetylcholine-driven spasms in the intestines and reduces gut movement.

Together they address both the nervous and the digestive parts of these conditions.

Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium dosage

▾

These capsules are taken by mouth. The usual maintenance schedule on the label is 1 or 2 capsules, 3 or 4 times a day, before meals and at bedtime.

  • Your prescriber individualizes the dose based on your diagnosis and response.
  • Older adults start low, with no more than 2 capsules per day at first, and increase gradually as needed and tolerated.
  • Do not stop suddenly after continued use. Your prescriber should guide a slow taper.

Dosing details from the FDA-approved label

From the Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium prescribing information (“Dosage and Administration”). Doses are set by your prescriber for your product, condition, kidney function and age — never change a dose on your own.

  • Usual maintenance dose (general)
    • 1 or 2 capsules, 3 or 4 times a day administered before meals and at bedtime
    • Dosage should be individualized for maximum beneficial effects
    • Optimum dosage varies with the diagnosis and response of the individual patient
  • Geriatric patients
    • Initial dose should not exceed 2 capsules per day, to be increased gradually as needed and tolerated
    • Limit to the smallest effective amount to preclude the development of ataxia, oversedation or confusion
  • Discontinuation or dosage reduction
    • Use a gradual taper to discontinue or reduce the dosage
    • If withdrawal reactions develop, consider pausing the taper or increasing the dosage to the previous tapered dosage level, then decrease the dosage more slowly
Read the label’s full dosing text

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended Dosage Because of the varied individual responses to tranquilizers and anticholinergics, the optimum dosage of chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules varies with the diagnosis and response of the individual patient. The dosage, therefore, should be individualized for maximum beneficial effects. The usual maintenance dose is 1 or 2 capsules, 3 or 4 times a day administered before meals and at bedtime. Recommended Geriatric Dosage Dosage should be limited to the smallest effective amount to preclude the development of ataxia, oversedation or confusion. The initial dose should not exceed 2 chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules per day, to be increased gradually as needed and tolerated. Elderly patients have an increased risk of dose-related adverse reactions (see PRECAUTIONS ). Discontinuation or Dosage Reduction of Chlordiazepoxide Hydrochloride and Clidinium Bromide Capsules To reduce the risk of withdrawal reactions, use a gradual taper to discontinue chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules or reduce the dosage. If a patient develops withdrawal reactions, consider pausing the taper or increasing the dosage to the previous tapered dosage level. Subsequently decrease the dosage more slowly (see WARNINGS and DRUG ABUSE AND DEPENDENCE ).

Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium side effects

▾

Most side effects come from the two ingredients. Common ones include:

Common side effects

  • Dry mouth
  • Blurred vision
  • Trouble starting urination (urinary hesitancy)
  • Constipation
  • Drowsiness
  • Unsteadiness (ataxia)
  • Confusion, especially in older or frail people

When to get medical help

  • Get emergency help for extreme sleepiness, slow or trouble breathing, or being hard to wake, especially if you also take opioids or alcohol.
  • Call your doctor if you notice signs of misuse or addiction, such as taking more than prescribed or craving the medicine.
  • Seek help right away for seizures or other severe withdrawal symptoms after stopping or cutting back quickly.
  • Tell your doctor if you faint.
  • Report skin rash, jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes), or other signs of blood or liver problems.
  • Call your doctor about worsening confusion, unsteadiness or oversedation, especially in older adults.

Fainting has been reported in a few cases. Blood and liver problems have occasionally been reported with chlordiazepoxide, so tell your doctor about rash, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or unusual symptoms.

Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium warnings and precautions

▾
  • Opioids: combining can cause profound sedation, slowed breathing, coma and death.
  • Abuse, misuse and addiction: these can lead to overdose or death. Risk is higher with alcohol or other substances.
  • Dependence and withdrawal: abrupt stopping can cause life-threatening reactions such as seizures. Some people have withdrawal symptoms lasting weeks to over 12 months.
  • Driving and machinery: avoid hazardous tasks needing full alertness.
  • Pregnancy: use in the first trimester should almost always be avoided.

Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium interactions

▾

Sedating substances are the main concern.

  • Opioids: add to breathing suppression and sedation.
  • Alcohol and other CNS depressants: effects can add together.
  • Oral anticoagulants: variable effects on clotting have been reported very rarely.
  • Other spasm-relieving medicines: constipation has been most common with these.
  • Flumazenil: can trigger withdrawal reactions, including seizures.

Interactions listed in the FDA-approved label

From the Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium prescribing information (“Drug Interactions”): what the manufacturer studied or reported to the FDA.

  • Opioids: Concomitant use of benzodiazepines, including chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, and opioids increases the risk of respiratory depression because of actions at different receptor sites in the CNS that control respiration. Limit dosage and duration of concomitant use, and follow patients closely for respiratory depression and sedation.
  • Oral anticoagulants: Variable effects on blood coagulation have been reported very rarely in patients receiving oral anticoagulants and chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, although clinical studies have not established a cause and effect relationship. Physicians should be aware of this possibility.
Read the label’s full interactions text

Drug Interactions Opioids The concomitant use of benzodiazepines, including chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, a component of chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules, and opioids increases the risk of respiratory depression because of actions at different receptor sites in the CNS that control respiration. Benzodiazepines interact at GABA A sites and opioids interact primarily at mu receptors. When benzodiazepines and opioids are combined, the potential for benzodiazepines to significantly worsen opioid-related respiratory depression exists. Limit dosage and duration of concomitant use of chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules and opioids, and follow patients closely for respiratory depression and sedation. Oral Anticoagulants Although clinical studies have not established a cause and effect relationship, physicians should be aware that variable effects on blood coagulation have been reported very rarely in patients receiving oral anticoagulants and chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, a component of chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules. Pregnancy Risk Summary Chlordiazepoxide Hydrochloride Neonates born to mothers using benzodiazepines during the later stages of pregnancy have been reported to experience symptoms of sedation and/or neonatal withdrawal (see WARNINGS , Neonatal Sedation and Withdrawal Syndrome and PRECAUTIONS , Clinical Considerations ). Available data from published observational studies of pregnant women exposed to benzodiazepines do not report a clear association with benzodiazepines and major birth defects (see Data) . Clidinium Bromide Over decades of use, there is an absence of published data on orally administered clidinium bromide in pregnant women, including an absence of any reports of a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes.

Before taking Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium

▾
  • Do not use if you have glaucoma.
  • Do not use if you have an enlarged prostate or benign bladder neck obstruction.
  • Do not use if you are allergic to chlordiazepoxide or clidinium.
  • Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy.
  • Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding. Clidinium may suppress lactation, and infants should be watched for sedation and poor feeding.
  • Older adults need lower starting doses and have a higher risk of side effects.

Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium overdose

▾

Too much can cause drowsiness, confusion, poor coordination, slurred speech, slowed breathing and coma. Anticholinergic effects can include dry skin and mouth, flushing, fast heartbeat, urinary retention, agitation, delirium and seizures. Mixing with alcohol or opioids can be fatal. Call a poison center at 1-800-222-1222 or seek emergency care.

What Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium does in the body

▾

Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine. Animal studies suggest it acts on the limbic system and has a calming effect at doses below those that cause sedation. Clidinium is an anticholinergic with activity similar to atropine against intestinal spasms. It reduces intestinal motility and can reduce saliva.

How to store Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium

▾

Store at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F); excursions permitted between 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F). Dispense in Tight Containers. Keep out of reach of children .

Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium: pharmacist answers to common questions

Quick, plain-English answers to the questions patients ask most about Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium — the kind of thing our pharmacy team would talk through with you at the counter.

What is this medicine for?

▾
It's used for stomach and bowel problems that have a stress or emotional component. It can also be added to other treatment for peptic ulcer, irritable bowel syndrome and acute enterocolitis.

How should I take it?

▾
Take it by mouth, usually before meals and at bedtime, exactly as your prescriber directs. Your dose is individualized, so follow your label. Don't stop suddenly if you've been on it a while, because withdrawal can be serious.

What side effects should I expect?

▾
Dry mouth, blurry vision, trouble starting urination and constipation are the most typical. Drowsiness, unsteadiness and confusion can also happen, especially in older adults. Call your doctor if these are bothersome or if you faint.

Can I drink alcohol or take pain medicines with it?

▾
Avoid alcohol. Opioid pain medicines are a serious concern, since the combination can cause dangerous sleepiness, slowed breathing, coma and death. Tell me or your doctor about every medicine you take.

Who shouldn't take it?

▾
People with glaucoma, an enlarged prostate or bladder neck obstruction, or an allergy to either ingredient should not take it. Tell your doctor if you're pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Is it safe for older adults?

▾
Older adults are more prone to drowsiness, unsteadiness and confusion, so they start with a lower dose that's raised slowly only if needed.

Is Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium available over the counter?

▾
No. Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium is a prescription medicine: every Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium product listed with the FDA is prescription only, so it is not sold over the counter. Your prescriber decides whether it is appropriate for you, and your pharmacist dispenses it.

When was Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium first available?

▾
The earliest FDA record we hold for Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium is from 1966: its first approval in Drugs@FDA or its earliest product listing in the NDC Directory, whichever is older. Many older medicines were in use before their first formal FDA approval, so this is the earliest date on record, not necessarily when Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium was first used.

Who makes Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium?

▾
13 companies currently list Chlordiazepoxide and Clidinium products in the FDA's NDC Directory, including Bryant Ranch Prepack, Alembic Pharmaceuticals Inc., Alembic Pharmaceuticals Limited. That count includes repackagers and distributors as well as manufacturers (companies that sell only the raw ingredient are not counted), so fewer companies actually make it; the label on your bottle names the one that supplied yours.
