Bydrot-M Tablet is a combination medicine used to provide symptomatic relief in abdominal pain, muscle pain, migraine headache, functional bowel disorders, dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps), heavy bleeding during periods, renal colic pain, and pain after surgery. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Muscle spasm is the sudden involuntary contractions of the muscle, which can be painful and uncomfortable.

Bydrot-M Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Drotaverine (anti-spasmodic) and Mefenamic acid (NSAID). Drotaverine works by reducing calcium reuptake by the cells, thereby correcting the body’s calcium levels and relieves contractions associated with smooth muscles. Mefenamic acid works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandin (PG). By blocking COX enzymes’ effect, lesser PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Together, both the ingredients of Bydrot-M Tablet help in relieving pain and spasm.

Bydrot-M Tablet is recommended with food to prevent stomach upset. Swallow Bydrot-M Tablet as a whole with a glass of water; do not chew, or break the tablet. You are advised to take Bydrot-M Tablet 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 gastrointestinal disturbances, feeling thirsty, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, dry mouth, rashes and itching. 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.

Do not take Bydrot-M Tablet without your doctor advice, if you have had any recent heart surgery. Inform your doctor before taking Bydrot-M Tablet if you have/had asthma, peptic ulcers, porphyria, or bleeding problems.
