Trimebutine is a drug with antimuscarinic and very weak mu opioid agonist effects.[1] It is used for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome and other gastrointestinal disorders.
The major product from drug metabolism of trimebutine in human beings is nortrimebutine,[2] which comes from removal of one of the methyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom. Trimebutine exerts its effects in part due to causing a premature activation of phase III of the migrating motor complex in the digestive tract.[3]
Both trimebutine and its metabolite[citation needed] are commercially available.
