Intramuscular or slow intravenous injection

The active ingredient in Buscopan Injection is hyoscine butylbromide.

• Hyoscine butylbromide works by relaxing the muscles in the stomach and gut.
• It blocks certain signals from reaching the smooth muscles in these areas.
• This relaxation helps relieve cramps and pain caused by muscle spasms.
• By reducing muscle contractions, it also helps alleviate bloating and discomfort.
• Hyoscine butylbromide does not directly affect the digestion or absorption of food.
• It specifically targets smooth muscle spasms without affecting other parts of the body.
• The exact mechanism of action involves inhibiting the action of acetylcholine on smooth muscles.
• This inhibition leads to reduced muscle contractions and subsequent relief from symptoms.
• The effects are temporary and wear off as the medication is metabolized and eliminated from the body.
• The active ingredient in Buscopan Injection does not cause sedation or affect the central nervous system.

• Store Buscopan Injection in a cool, dry place.
• Protect the medicine from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Keep it out of reach and sight of children.

• Eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to support digestive health.
• Stay hydrated by drinking enough water throughout the day.
• Avoid foods that trigger your symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, such as spicy or fatty foods.
• Practice stress management techniques like yoga or meditation to reduce stress levels, which can worsen digestive symptoms.
• Engage in regular physical activity or exercise as it promotes healthy digestion.
• Get enough sleep to allow your body to rest and recover properly.
