How Does Duspatalin Work?

Mebeverine hydrochloride, the active ingredient in Duspatalin 200 mg capsules, acts directly on the smooth muscles lining the gut. By relaxing these muscles, it eases the painful spasms and cramping associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) without interfering with normal bowel movements. Unlike some other antispasmodics, it does not cause dry mouth or blurred vision.
