How does Gastro-Soothe (Hyoscine Butylbromide) work:

Gastro-Soothe (Hyoscine Butylbromide) is used to relieve cramps and spasms in the abdomen area. Although it can relieve cramps, it does not cure the pain sensations but will relax the muscles which are causing the pain or spasms.

Dosage & Administration:

Gastro-Soothe is suitable for both adults and children over 6 years old.

Follow the instructions of your physician. The correct dosage and frequency of administration will depend on your age, weight, severity of your condition and which other medicines you are already taking.

The typical dose is 4 tablets twice a day. Do not take more than 8 tablets in a day. Swallow the tablets whole alongside a full glass of water.

If you have not experienced any improvements in your condition after 2 weeks use, seek further advice from your physician for alternative methods of treatment.

Side Effects:

• upset stomach
• vomiting
• gassiness
• dry mouth
• headaches
• nausea
• difficult breathing
• swelling
• skin rashes
• hives

Precautions:

No patient should continue using Gastro-Soothe for more than 2 weeks unless they have specifically been advised so by their physician. Under normal circumstances, using this medication for periods longer than this will both increase the risks, as well as severity, of any side effects.

Before you begin using Gastro-Soothe, inform your physician of any other existing health conditions you have, any other medication or drugs you are taking, as well as if you have any allergies, if you are pregnant, and if you are currently breastfeeding.
