About Anafortan Injection 2 ml

Anafortan Injection 2 ml belongs to a group of drugs called 'anticholinergics', used to reduce abdominal pain caused due to intestinal colic, biliary colic, renal colic, and dysmenorrhoea (irregular periods/menses). A muscle spasm is an involuntary contraction of a muscle that can cause a great deal of pain. These cramps can range from mild to severe.

Anafortan Injection 2 ml consists of 'Camylofin (antispasmodic)'. Camylofin helps in blocking the activity of certain natural substances in the body responsible for causing pain. It also relaxes the muscles in the stomach to relieve sudden muscle contractions. In this way, it effectively reduces abdominal pain.

Anafortan Injection 2 ml will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Some people may experience dizziness, nausea (feeling sick), digestion problems (constipation, flatulence, diarrhoea) and skin reactions (like rashes and hives). Most of the side effects of Anafortan Injection 2 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

If you are allergic to Camylofin or any other medicines, please tell your doctor before receiving Anafortan Injection 2 ml.
