A member asked:
Did they used to make diphenoxylate without atropine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diphenoxylate: crosses the blood brain barrier and is very addicting. It is manufactured in bulk as a schedule II narcotic then combined with other agents like Atropine to yield Lomotil (diphenoxylat and atropine) which is a schedule V drug (less highly regulated) There are similar agents that are sold by themselves or also in combination. Yes, they used to just make it until they realized you could become seriously addicted.
