Hyoscine butylbromide: a review of its use in the treatment of abdominal cramping and pain

The estimated prevalence of abdominal cramping and pain in the Western population is < or =30%.

This study focuses on reviewing the pharmacology and pharmacokinetic profile of hyoscine butylbromide and summarises efficacy and safety data from clinical trials of this drug for abdominal cramping and pain.

Ten placebo-controlled studies have assessed the efficacy and safety of oral or rectal hyoscine butylbromide. Each of these trials found hyoscine butylbromide to be beneficial, supporting its use for treating abdominal pain caused by cramping. Because hyoscine butylbromide is minimally absorbed into the bloodstream and does not cross the blood-brain barrier, it is generally well tolerated.

The conclusion of this study is that hyoscine butylbromide is a valuable treatment option for patients with symptoms of abdominal pain or discomfort associated with cramping.
