BIOSPASS INJ 30ML

DICYCLO HCL 30MG INJ

BIOSPASS INJ 30ML is an injectable preparation of dicyclomine hydrochloride 30 mg, an antispasmodic given intramuscularly. It is used for acute smooth-muscle spasm — intestinal, biliary and renal colic, dysmenorrhoea, and spasmodic abdominal pain — where rapid relief is needed and the oral route is unsuitable.

Benefits

  • Relaxes gastrointestinal and genitourinary smooth muscle through antimuscarinic and direct actions, relieving colicky pain.
  • The injectable route gives faster onset than oral dosing, which matters in acute colic.
  • Effective in dysmenorrhoea and in the spasmodic pain of irritable bowel syndrome.
  • Useful where vomiting makes oral antispasmodics impractical.
  • The multi-dose presentation suits clinic and emergency settings.

Precautions

  • For administration by a qualified healthcare professional, by intramuscular injection only. Not for intravenous use.
  • Contraindicated in narrow-angle glaucoma, urinary retention, significant prostatic enlargement, myasthenia gravis, paralytic ileus and obstructive gastrointestinal disease.
  • Contraindicated in infants under six months and in breastfeeding — dicyclomine has caused serious apnoeic episodes in infants.
  • Do not use to mask undiagnosed acute abdominal pain, which may need surgical assessment.
  • Causes drowsiness and blurred vision. The patient must not drive afterwards.
  • Use with particular caution in the elderly, who are more susceptible to confusion, urinary retention and falls.
  • Anticholinergic effects are additive with antihistamines, tricyclic antidepressants and other antimuscarinic drugs.
  • Use with care in hot environments, as reduced sweating impairs temperature regulation.
