Anaspas Injection 2 ml

Anaspas Injection 2 ml belongs to the class of medications called ‘analgesics’. It is used to treat abdominal cramps or pain associated with various gastrointestinal conditions such as intestinal colic (blockage in the intestine), biliary colic (gallstones), renal colic (kidney stones), dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps), and pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), etc.

Anaspas Injection 2 ml is a combination of Diclofenac and Camylofin. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by reducing prostaglandins' production (chemical substances that cause pain and inflammation) at the affected site (muscle), and thus, it reduces pain. Camylofin is an antispasmodic drug. It relaxes the stomach and gut (intestine) and stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms).
