nursing consideration of buscopan ## Butylscopolamine, also known as scopolamine butylbromide and hyoscine butylbromide, is a peripherally acting antimuscarinic, anticholinergic agent used as an abdominal-specific antispasmodic.

Butylscopolamine is used to treat pain and discomfort caused by abdominal cramps, menstrual cramps, or other spasmodic activity in the digestive system.

what is the side effect of buscopan in early pregnancy? ## Buscopan contains a form of Butylscopolamine, it is used as an intestinal antispasmodic and, since it is not commonly used in the U.S., I am sorry, but I don't have any information available on whether or not it is safe to use during pregnancy.

ROUND WHITE NO NUMBERS, ETC; NO SCORES ## Buscopan is not available in the U.S., but it contains the active ingredient Butylscopolamine. It is used to help treat and prevent the symptoms of IBS. As to a description of the tablet, since it is not in the U.S. databases, I do not know if that is what you have or not. I could not find any description or direct image to look at. All prescription tablets in the U.S. have to have markings on them to enable their ID. Do you have any questions?

My daughter is 11yrs old and had stomache pains can she take this med ## Hi yvonne, Sorry to hear about your daughter's stomach pain. Concerning the use of Butylscopolamine + Paracetamol, the indications do state that it can be used for various types of gastrointestinal diseases, including intestinal spasms/cramps. However - I have yet to come across any dosing instructions specifically laid out for children. My findings only show adult dosing guidelines. So it seems to me like it would probably still be best to contact your doctor just to play it safe. I hope this helps!
