Description
Curator's Comment: http://www.boehringer-ingelheim.info/mena/segments/consumer_healthcare/buscopan.html; http://www.fda.gov/downloads/animalveterinary/products/approvedanimaldrugproducts/foiadrugsummaries/ucm118039.pdf; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17547475

Butylscopolamine (trade name Buscopan) is a peripherally acting antimuscarinic, anticholinergic agent. It is a natural substance extracted from Duboisia plant species as Scopolamine (hyoscine) and chemically modified to the quaternary ammonium compound hyoscine butylbromide. It was first registered in Germany in 1951 and marketed in 1952, and is available worldwide both as a prescription drug and as an over-the-counter medicine in many countries. Buscopan is used to treat spasm of the gastrointestinal tract, biliary spasm, renal spasm, diagnostic aid in radiology. In the United States Buscopan approved by FDA to be used in the veterinary medicine only - for the control of abdominal pain associated with spasmodic colic, flatulent colic, and simple impactions in horses. Butylbromide has a high affinity for muscarinic receptors located on the smooth-muscle cells of the GI tract. Its anticholinergic action exerts a smooth-muscle relaxing/spasmolytic effect. Blockade of the muscarinic receptors in the GI tract is the basis for its use in the treatment of abdominal pain secondary to cramping. Hyoscine butylbromide also binds to nicotinic receptors, which induces a ganglion-blocking effect.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: As a quaternary ammonium compound with low lipid solubility, it cannot pass the blood/brain barrier easily and only rarely causes the central nervous system side effects associated with atropine and hyoscine

Originator

Curator's Comment: Boehringer Ingelheim first launched Buscopan in the early 1950s in Egipt

Sample Use Guides

For adults and children over 6 years: 2 Buscopan tablets ( 10 mg each) four times daily or 1x20 mg Buscopan Forte tablet four times daily. Buscopan tablets are not recommended for children under 6 years of age. 1 or 2 ampules (20 or 40 mg) by intramuscular or slow intravenous injection. A maximum daily dose of 100 mg should not be exceeded. BUSCOPAN tablets and ampules should not be taken on a continuous daily basis or for extended periods without investigating the cause of abdominal pain.
Route of Administration: Other
Hyoscine butylbromide at the concentration range 1 nmol/L-10 umol/L effects on muscle activity were studied with isometric force transducers and calcium imaging and it effects on epithelial secretion were studied with with Ussing chamber technique and on enteric neurons using fast neuroimaging. Hyoscine butylbromide concentration dependently reduced muscle contractions, calcium mobilization, and epithelial secretion induced by the muscarinic agonist bethanechol with IC50 values of 429, 121, and 224 nmol/L, respectively.
