Buscopan composite inj. 100 ml

PRODUCT NAME
BUSCOPAN INJECTABLE

Composition 1ml contains:
Butyl scopolamine……………………………………..4 mg
metamizole sodium……………………………………500 mg;
phenol, in stabilized aqueous solution……………………5 mg

Therapeutic action:
BUSCOPAN is a long-acting spasmodic analgesic. The effect is based on both components, which specifically relax the contraction (spasm) and concomitantly remove pain (aminophenazone derivative). BUSCOPAN (Butyl scopolamine) has a specific spasmolytic effect on the smooth muscles of the digestive tract, biliary tract and urogenital organs. In therapeutic doses it does not induce side effects similar to atropine.
Metamizole sodium acts as a central analgesic, antipyretic and spasmolytic. Through the spasmolytic effect it leads to a decrease in the irritability of the intestinal smooth muscles. The spasmolytic effect is due to the antiphlogistic action achieved by waterproofing the vessels and by improving the blood supply to the smooth muscles, desired in therapy. Depending on the method of administration and the evolution of the disease, a long-lasting effect is established, of about 4-6 hours. This is explained by the retention of buscopan in the enterohepatic circulation and a constant secretion in the intestinal lumen followed by reabsorption (enterohepatic circuit). For these reasons, most of the time a single injection is sufficient for healing. Usually the pain subsides already at the end of the intravenous injection, and with im administration the effect is established after 20-30 min. By combining the centralanalgesic and spasmolytic components, a total effect will be obtained even in case of colic or severe painful spastic states.

Indications:
Pain/spasms in the digestive system, biliary tract and genitourinary system
Horses:
-spastic colic, colic in constipation of the large intestine, esophageal obstruction
Cattle, calves:
-diarrhea, spastic colic, functional tympanism, esophageal obstruction
Swine:
-diarrhea, gastroenteritis, spastic colic.
Dogs:
-gastroenteritis, diarrhea, vomiting, spasms in the urogenital system, functional ileus.
The preparation is successfully used in bacterial or parasitic gastroenteritis, in association with antibiotics or anthelmintics depending on the etiology.
Of particular note is the effect verified in various diarrheas. By normalizing peristalsis, eliminating spasm and pain, hypermotility and hypersecretion, the stool immediately regains its normal consistency, preventing the loss of fluids and electrolytes (dehydration) and restoring normal appetite. In calves, the preparation has a remarkable effect in functional tympanism that frequently occurs. In other cases of tympani, injection with BUSCOPAN comp. facilitates the insertion of the nasoesophageal tube. After administration of the product, it will be observed that eructation sets in as soon as the tube is inserted. A special indication is esophageal obstruction in cattle and horses.

Administration and dosage:
Slow intravenous (immediate effect) or intramuscularly, in horses (if possible) i.v., in dogs it can also be administered subcutaneously:
Horses 20-30 ml;
Cattle 20-25 ml;
Calves, pigs 5-10 ml;
Piglets 1-2 ml;
Dogs 1-2.5 ml.

Contraindications:
Sensitivity to one of the components of the preparation. Do not use in cats.

Side effects:
In dogs, painful reactions occasionally occur immediately after injection. They are reduced by subcutaneous administration.
