About this product

Overview

Buscopan Plus Tablet is a medication that combines two active ingredients: Hyoscine butylbromide (also known as scopolamine) and paracetamol (acetaminophen). It is primarily prescribed for the relief of abdominal cramps and pain associated with gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and menstrual cramps.

Uses

Buscopan Plus Tablet is used to:

  • Relieve abdominal cramps and pain caused by gastrointestinal spasms or disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or functional dyspepsia.
  • Alleviate menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea) and associated symptoms, such as pelvic pain and discomfort, during menstruation.

How It Works

  • Hyoscine Butylbromide (Hyoscine): It works by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. By inhibiting muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract, hyoscine helps reduce abdominal cramps and pain.
  • Paracetamol (Acetaminophen): It is a pain reliever and fever reducer that works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, substances in the body that contribute to pain and inflammation. Paracetamol helps relieve mild to moderate pain associated with abdominal cramps and menstrual discomfort.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Buscopan Plus Tablet may include:

  • Dry mouth
  • Blurred vision
  • Dizziness
  • Drowsiness
  • Nausea
  • Constipation (less common)

Less common but more severe side effects may include:

  • Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling
  • Difficulty urinating
  • Rapid heartbeat
  • Confusion or hallucinations (rare)

If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, inform your healthcare provider promptly.

Precautions

Before taking Buscopan Plus Tablet, inform your doctor if you have any allergies, glaucoma, urinary retention, liver or kidney problems, or if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other medications. It’s important to follow the recommended dosage and not exceed the maximum daily dose of paracetamol to avoid potential liver damage.

When Not to Use

Buscopan Plus Tablet should not be used by individuals who are allergic to hyoscine, paracetamol, or any other components of the tablet. It is also not recommended for use in individuals with narrow-angle glaucoma, severe ulcerative colitis, myasthenia gravis, or obstructive diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.
