DIPHENOXYLATE HYDROCHLORIDE AND ATROPINE SULFATE IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER 2 YEARS OF AGE.

See WARNINGS and DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION.
Similarly, nerve damage in the arm can cause numbness. This may include damage to the nerves in the arms, shoulder, neck, or spine. This could be the result of blood circulation being interrupted or a nerve becoming compressed.
Arm numbness is an abnormal condition in which you feel a loss of sensation in one (unilateral) or both (bilateral) arms. The sensation may extend over the length of the arm and into the hands and fingers. Arm numbness usually arises from a lack of blood supply to an area or nerve damage. Arm numbness can also result from infection, inflammation, trauma, malignancy, and other abnormal processes. Most cases of arm numbness are not due to a life-threatening condition.
