What does it do?

Pinaverium bromide is a drug that acts on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract and is primarily used to treat gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome. This ingredient helps alleviate muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract.

Pinaverium bromide reduces excessive contractions of the muscles by regulating the movement of calcium ions within the smooth muscle cells of the gastrointestinal tract. This helps relieve spasms and pain in the intestines.
