About Drotin A Tablet 10's

Drotin A Tablet 10's is a combination medication used to reduce and relieve abdominal pain and cramps. Abdominal (tummy) pain occurs between the chest and pelvic region (below the belly button and leg). Abdominal cramps can be due to bloating (trapped wind), diarrhoea, kidney stones, stomach ulcer, appendicitis or other gastrointestinal conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
 
Drotin A Tablet 10's is a combination of two drugs, namely: Drotaverine (antispasmodic) and Aceclofenac (pain killer). Drotaverine works by relieving contractions associated with smooth muscles of the abdomen. Aceclofenac works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation. Together, Drotin A Tablet 10's helps in relieving abdominal pain and cramps.
 
You are advised to take Drotin A Tablet 10's for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, dizziness and indigestion. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
 
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Drotin A Tablet 10's may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive with caution. Drotin A Tablet 10's should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Drotin A Tablet 10's as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness; it might also increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side-effects.
