- Abstract
The following trials were carried out to evaluate the antispasmodic effect of sintropium bromide in a group of 30 patients. The antispasmodic effect on the gastroduodenal system was observed endoscopically. The results were compared by means of double blind tests carried out using placebo and rociverine. The effect in a group of 10 patients was examined by X-ray of the digestive tract. The effect on another group of 20 patients suffering from abdominal colic was clinically evaluated. Sintropium bromide has a prompt anticholinergic action and for this reason may be used in the treatment of painful conditions of the bile, gastro-enteric and renal tracts, and also during the course of endoscopic examinations.
