Accepted Answer

Tramadol : Tramadol is usually dosed every 4-6 hours.  Baclofen is usually every 8 hours.  They can both cause respiratory depression so should definitely only be taken as prescribed.  You could also try alternating heat and cool packs to your pack, and taking advil (ibuprofen) (it's not strong but sometimes the combination can help) if you don't have reasons you can't take nsaids (blood disorder, ulcer, etc).

Question 2

hi , my 3year old is complaining about stomach pains since 3 weeks back and i have taken him to gp twice and they diagnosed tonsillitis and was given medication including buscopan..  he is eating well with no fever but keeps on complaining about pain?

Accepted Answer

Probiotic: After a course of antibiotics for his tonsillitis, the gut flora may change and a pediatric Probiotic may help to relieve his symptoms. Discontinue the Buscopan, provide non dairy sources of protein and a balanced diet until well.

Buscopan: Buscopan, as an anticholinergic, can result in some acid suppression, although it is a weak effect. This should not cause any side effects, and if the stomach is contributing to the abdominal symptoms, it may actually help a little bit. Hope that helps.

Question 9

NOT recommended: Buscopan (hyoscine/scopolamine butylbromide, ) is a type of medicine called an antispasmodic (peripherally acting antimuscarinic-anticholinergic).  It is used to relieve irritable bowel symptoms or 'abdominal cramps' .
Buscopan can 'potentiate' (or increase)  anti-cholinergic affects of anti-histamines so it not recommended to take at the same time.

You can but.........: Motillium is a centrally acting agent for nausea with many bad side effects, some potentially long term: ie, tardive dyskinesia. It causes hyperprolactinemia always. The buscopan is an anticholinergic drug for muscle cramps and was developed to not cross the blood brain barrier. So, you have GI problems being solely symptomatically treated. The increased prolactin causes lack of pleasure.
