Hello

Thanks for asking on this platform

Cyclopam contains dicyclomine and it helps in spasmodic pain of abdomen.
5 ml of cyclopam contains 10 my and this is sufficient in older children.
You may repeat it 2-3 times a day.
If pain persists please consult a pediatrician for proper evaluation and management accordingly.

I hope this helps.
