Abstract: The use of moxonidine or a physiologically compatible acid addition salt thereof for the treatment and/or inhibition of functional gastrointestinal disturbances or illnesses in the region of the lower intestinal tracts, particularly for the treatment and/or inhibition of abdominal visceral pain which accompanies them, and the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions suitable for this treatment are is described. The functional disturbances and illnesses of the lower intestinal tracts which can be treated according to the invention are known in particular as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which generally also include visceral pain as one of their symptoms.
