Buscopan contains the active ingredient Butylscopolamine and it is mainly used, in these cause, for its antispasmodic properties. That means that it can reduce some of the pain associated with the muscle flexing and spasms that can occur with giving birth.

Such medications aren't commonly used in the U.S.

Buccopan relaxes smooth muscles. It also helps to dilate the cervical os. In latent labour this inj. 20mg works very fast. It's not safe to use in pregnancy though as it can cause a miscarriage.

Buscopan is safe for the pregnant woman who is at least 36 weeks pregnant. It helps with cervix ripening and dilatation. In a study done with 97 pregnant women who entered into spontaneous labour, the group who were given buscopan had a short first stage of labour.
