Librax (clinidium and chlordiazepoxide) IBS: Librax (clinidium and chlordiazepoxide) is a combo drug- and it contains a benzodiazepine as well as an anti-spasmodic drug. It would be beneficial to avoid long term continual use of a benzodiazepine for IBS as it potentially can cause dependence. There are alternatives with the benzodiazepine
