About Menoctyl Tablet

Menoctyl Tablet belongs to a class of drugs called 'antispasmodics' (spasm and cramps reliever) primarily used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and other gastrointestinal conditions characterized by motility problems, painful bowel spasms and distension (swelling and bloating in the belly area).
