CYCLOPAM MF 10S

About

CYCLOPAM MF is a combination medication formulated to provide comprehensive relief from abdominal pain and cramps. It typically contains Dicyclomine, an antispasmodic agent, and Mefenamic Acid, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Dicyclomine works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby reducing spasms and cramping. Mefenamic Acid, on the other hand, inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

This dual-action approach makes CYCLOPAM MF particularly effective for conditions characterized by both spasmodic pain and inflammatory components, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea). The combination provides rapid and effective relief by addressing both the muscular spasms and the underlying pain and inflammation, improving patient comfort and quality of life. It is important to use this medication under medical supervision due to the potential side effects associated with both active ingredients.
