FAQ: What conditions is Gastro-Soothe Forte used for?

Gastro-Soothe Forte is used for the relief of abdominal cramps and spasm associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), period pain with bowel cramps, gastroenteritis cramping and other conditions causing smooth muscle spasm in the digestive tract. It is not a pain reliever for general pain - it works specifically on smooth muscle spasm in hollow organs like the intestine, stomach and bladder.

FAQ: How quickly does Gastro-Soothe Forte work?

Hyoscine butylbromide typically provides relief within 15-30 minutes of taking the tablet. The tablets work directly on gut smooth muscle without significant systemic absorption at oral doses, meaning they provide relatively localised gut antispasmodic action. For best results, take at the onset of cramping rather than waiting for pain to become severe.

FAQ: Are there people who should not take Gastro-Soothe Forte?

Gastro-Soothe Forte should not be used by people with glaucoma, enlarged prostate, or certain heart conditions. It is a pharmacist only medicine - our pharmacist will assess suitability and ask screening questions before supply. Always inform our pharmacist of your medical history and current medications before purchasing.
