Meftal-Spas Suspension is used to treat abdominal pain, stomach cramps, and bloating caused by intestinal spasms and excess gas in children. It contains dicyclomine, an antispasmodic that relaxes the smooth muscle of the stomach and intestines, and simethicone, an anti-foaming agent that helps gas bubbles pass more easily. Together they help relieve abdominal discomfort associated with intestinal spasms and gas.
Give it only as prescribed by your doctor. Consult your doctor before use, and tell them about any existing conditions or other medicines, and report any side effects.

Side Effects of Meftal Spas Suspension
Meftal-Spas Suspension may cause side effects including dry mouth, mild dizziness, sleepiness, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and weakness. These side effects are generally minor and temporary.
Management Of Side Effects:
Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Meftal-Spas Suspension. However, if your child experiences any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

How Meftal Spas Suspension Works?
Meftal-Spas Suspension combines two active ingredients:
- Dicyclomine (10 mg): Dicyclomine is a medicine that helps relax the muscles in your child's stomach and intestines. It works by blocking certain chemicals in your body that cause those muscles to tighten up and cause pain or discomfort.
- Simethicone (40 mg): Simethicone serves as an anti-foaming agent that breaks up gas bubbles trapped in your child's gastrointestinal tract. It aids in easier passage of gas, helping alleviate flatulence, bloating, and associated abdominal discomfort.
