Buscopan

BUSCOPAN: 

BUSCOPAN is a prescription medication classified as an antispasmodic, specifically formulated to relieve colic pain and discomfort associated with smooth muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract of racing horses and camels. This medication works by relaxing smooth muscle contractions, providing symptomatic relief and improving the animal's comfort.

• Rapid pain relief: BUSCOPAN acts directly on smooth muscle cells in the gastrointestinal tract, helping to relax spasms and alleviate pain associated with colic episodes. This can provide much-needed relief for horses and camels experiencing discomfort.
• Improved gut motility: By relaxing smooth muscle spasms, BUSCOPAN can help normalize gut motility, potentially aiding in the passage of gas and impactions, and promoting a return to normal digestive function.
• Reduced inflammation: While not its primary function, BUSCOPAN may possess some anti-inflammatory properties, which could offer additional benefits in managing discomfort associated with colic.

Uses:

• BUSCOPAN is indicated for the treatment of:
  • Colic pain associated with smooth muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract of horses and camels.
  • Spasmodic conditions affecting the gastrointestinal tract, such as ileus (failure of the intestines to move contents forward).
