Hyoscine (Scopolamine) is a drug used to treat gastrointestinal problems and motility disorders. It can reduce gastrointestinal and vomiting symptoms and can also be used to reduce salivation before surgery. Hyoscine belongs to the class of anticholinergic drugs that work by affecting nerve conduction. It is usually taken as an oral tablet, patch, or injection. When using Hyoscine, some side effects may occur, such as dry mouth, blurred vision, rapid heartbeat, etc. In Hong Kong, Hyoscine usually requires a doctor's prescription to purchase and should be used correctly according to medical advice. If serious side effects or allergic reactions occur, seek medical attention immediately. Ask your doctor to learn more about Hyoscine.
How to use: HYOSCINE is an antispasmodic medication commonly used to treat gastrointestinal spasms and motility disorders. It is recommended to wash hands before taking and make sure the medicine is kept in a dry and cool place. It is usually recommended to take it 30 minutes before or after a meal, and can be taken with water. While taking it, drinks containing caffeine should be avoided to avoid increasing the side effects of the drug.
Dosage Guidelines: For adults, the recommended starting dose is 10 mg 2-3 times daily. Depending on the severity of symptoms and individual response, your doctor may adjust the dosage. For children, the dose should be based on age and weight, usually 0.1-0.3 mg/kg per dose, taken in divided doses daily. Always use the medication as recommended by your doctor and do not adjust the dosage or stop using it on your own. If you have any discomfort or questions, you should consult your doctor immediately.
