PROPERTIES and ACTIONS:
Colona was carefully designed to achieve effective relief of gastro- intestinal spasms and colics specially when presenting as psychosomatic manifestationof nervous tension, mental stress,anxiety or other psychic states. Colona contains Sulpiride which is a selective central dopamine 02 receptor blocker. It exerts a mood elevating effect (due to is neuroleptic effect) and anti-emetic action.
Mebeverine is a potent direct antispasmodic acting mainly on the smooth
muscles of the gastro-intestinal tract and in particular more effective on
the colonic spasm. Mebeverine being not an anticholenergic compound does
not produce any of the troublesome side effects of atropine or other
anti-spasmodics with atropine like properties. Colon a is, therefore, an antispasmodic specially effective in functional gastro-intestinal disorders and is particularly safe in elderly group who might be suffering from prostatic enlargement. glaucoma. or cardiac problems.
