Colofac Information

Colofac (Mebeverine Hydrochloride) is primarily indicated for the symptomatic treatment of irritable bowel syndrome and other conditions involving spasms of the gastrointestinal tract, such as chronic irritable colon, spastic constipation, and mucous colitis. Mebeverine hydrochloride is the active ingredient in Colofac. It belongs to the pharmacological class of antispasmodics, specifically a direct-acting smooth muscle relaxant. It works by directly acting on the smooth muscle cells in the gut wall. By regulating calcium channels and potentially affecting how muscle fibers respond to nerve signals, it inhibits bowel involuntary contractions (spasms). Notably, it achieves this without interfering with the normal movement (peristalsis) of the digestive system, and since it isn't an anticholinergic, it typically avoids side effects like blurred vision or dry mouth.

Irritable bowel syndrome is a common, long-term condition that affects the digestive system, causing symptoms like abdominal cramps, bloating, diarrhea, and constipation. These symptoms appear to be linked to how the gut, brain, and nervous system interact, which can make the muscles of the intestinal wall oversensitive and contract too forcefully or irregularly. When these spasms occur, they lead to the characteristic pain and urgency associated with the condition. Mebeverine helps relax these overactive muscles, reducing the intensity of the cramping. By easing the tension in the gut wall, the medication allows the digestive process to proceed more smoothly, effectively relieving the discomfort and helping to normalize bowel habits during a flare-up.
