How it works
Runspa Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Dicyclomine and Diclofenac. Dicyclomine is an anticholinergic which works by relaxing the muscles in the stomach and gut (intestine). It stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms) thereby relieving cramps, pain, bloating, and discomfort. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause abdominal pain and inflammation (swelling).
Quick Tips
You have been prescribed Runspa Tablet to get relief from abdominal pain, cramps, and bloating. It is best to take it when the first sign of pain occurs. Avoid taking any antacid at least 2 hours before or after taking Runspa Tablet. If you develop any new symptoms or if your symptoms get worse, make an appointment to see your doctor for further advice.
