Barry,

You have stated that you use an antispasmodic to thwart an GB attack.

What antispasmodic do you use? Does it require a prescription?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\

Has anyone else any experience with antispasmodics?

===============================================

BTW, has anyone taken Rowachol to dissolve stones? Any success?

Yes, an antispasmodic medicine is what they will give you if you ever

went into the emergency room late at night with gb colic. 25 mg will

stop the pain in a matter of minutes because it will relief the gb of

contracting and allow the stone to drop back out the mouth of the gb

to allow the bile to release. Buscapina is the name I use, and yes,

it is perscription. Saves a lot of trips to the emergency room in the

middle of the night. It is only a 'band-aide' to the real problem but

it sure will let you get right back to sleep. :-)

Hello,

Don't get discouraged if one doctor has not heard of it. Doctors

can not know everything and just do their best with what knowledge

that they have.

Please refer your doctor to the following info. It was taken from

the website:

http://www.emedicine.com/EMERG/topic98.htm

" Pain control considerations are as follows:

" Several studies now have shown that early pain control in ED

patients with abdominal pain does not hinder the diagnosis.

Therefore, administer pain control early, without waiting for the

diagnosis or surgical consult. A courtesy call to the surgical

consultant prior to administration of narcotics offers the expedient

opportunity to examine the patients without narcotics, which

occasionally diminishes surgical resistance to prediagnosis narcotic

use.

Primary pain control should be with anticholinergic antispasmodics

such as dicyclomine (Bentyl).

Secondary pain control should be with meperidine (Demerol). Some

physicians prefer not to use morphine, which may increase tone in

the sphincter of Oddi. "

Try also:

" Patients who come to the hospital for acute biliary pain are given

fluids and pain killers. Drugs known as antispasmodics and

anticholinergics, usually dicyclomine (Bentyl), is the first choice

for relief of gallbladder pain because they reduce muscles spasm. "
