Introduction

MEWAVERINE SR 200 is a prescription medicine containing Mebeverine Hydrochloride SR (200 mg), a well-known antispasmodic agent used in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and other gastrointestinal disorders. It is available in the form of tab mebeverine 200mg, which helps relieve stomach cramps, bloating, and spasms without affecting normal gut movement.

If you're suffering from abdominal pain, discomfort, or irregular bowel patterns due to IBS or other functional bowel disorders, mebeverine 200 mg tablets can be a safe and effective option for long-term relief.

What is Mebeverine?

Mebeverine Hydrochloride is an antispasmodic agent that directly acts on the smooth muscle of the gastrointestinal tract. It helps to relieve cramps and spasms in the stomach and intestines by relaxing the gut muscles, thereby easing discomfort, bloating, and irregular bowel movements.

Unlike other anticholinergic antispasmodics, mebeverine hydrochloride works without disrupting normal gut motility or causing sedation, making it a preferred choice for long-term use in IBS management.

Mebeverine Tablet Uses

Mebeverine tablet uses include the treatment and management of the following conditions:

1. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

A functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, and alternating constipation and diarrhea. Tab mebeverine 200 mg provides targeted relief by reducing muscle spasms in the gut.

2. Spastic Colitis

Inflammation of the colon that leads to painful cramping and irregular bowel habits.

3. Chronic Irritable Colon

Mebeverine 200 mg is used to ease symptoms caused by chronic irritation and inflammation of the colon.

4. Mucous Colitis

Helps reduce abdominal cramping and bloating in patients suffering from excess mucus production in the colon.

5. Non-Ulcer Dyspepsia

Relieves discomfort in the upper abdomen caused by indigestion without the presence of ulcers.

How Does Mebeverine Work?

Mebeverine hydrochloride works by relaxing the smooth muscle in the gastrointestinal tract, especially the colon. It blocks calcium channels in the muscle cells, preventing contraction and thus reducing spasms and cramping.

Unlike many traditional antispasmodic agents, mebeverine acts locally in the gut and does not affect the central nervous system, which means it avoids side effects like drowsiness, blurred vision, or dry mouth.
