Properties:
A myotropic antispasmodic, it has a direct effect on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract without affecting normal intestinal motility. The exact mechanism of action is unknown, but multiple mechanisms, such as decreased ion channel permeability, norepinephrine reuptake blockade, local anesthetic effect, and changes in water absorption may cause the local action of mebeverine on the gastrointestinal tract. Through these mechanisms, mebeverine exerts an antispasmodic effect, normalizing intestinal motility and without causing permanent relaxation of gastrointestinal smooth muscle cells (“hypotension”).
