Spasrid Injection

Spasrid Injection contains two active ingredients: Phloroglucinol & Trimethylphloroglucinol. It is an injectable medication primarily used to alleviate symptoms associated with smooth muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal and genitourinary systems.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits:
