How it works
Mebeverine is an antispasmodic agent that works by directly relaxing the smooth muscle in the walls of the intestines and bowel. It blocks certain channels in the muscle cells, preventing painful contractions and spasms. Unlike some other antispasmodics, it does not affect normal gut movement, so it relieves pain and discomfort while allowing normal digestion to continue.
