Meftal Spas Tablet

Relief of spasmodic abdominal pain such as menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhoea), colicky abdominal pain, gastrointestinal or urinary tract spasm-related pain when prescribed.

Mefenamic acid is an NSAID that reduces pain and inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. Dicyclomine is an antispasmodic (anticholinergic) that relaxes smooth muscles of the gut/uterus, reducing cramps and spasm.
