PropertiesBuscopan is a medication with antispasmodic properties for the treatment of pain such as abdominal pain, gastrointestinal complaints (including irritable bowel syndrome), urinary tract pain, colic, stomach cramps, and gallbladder complaints. Buscopan contains hyoscine, which relaxes the smooth muscles of the internal abdominal organs and thus relieves pain.
