Anaspas Injection 2 ml is used to treat abdominal cramps or pain associated with various gastrointestinal conditions, such as intestinal colic (blockage in the intestine), biliary colic (gallstones), renal colic (kidney stones), dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps), and pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas).

Anaspas Injection 2 ml is a combination of Diclofenac and Camylofin. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing prostaglandins' production (chemical substances that cause pain and inflammation) at the affected site (muscle), reducing pain. Camylofin is an antispasmodic drug. It relaxes the stomach and gut (intestine) and stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms).

A trained healthcare professional will administer Anaspas Injection 2 ml. Do not self-administer. Anaspas Injection 2 ml may cause certain common side effects such as stomach pain, heartburn, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, loss of appetite, headache, dizziness, and injection site redness or rash. These side effects are usually temporary and resolve over time. However, if any of these side effects persist or get worse, inform your doctor immediately.

• Include more glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, Vitamin D, and calcium-enriched supplements. Turmeric and fish oils can also help reduce pain and inflammation in the tissue.
• Please do not go for heavy exercise as it may increase abdominal pain. Instead, you can do stretching, low-impact aerobic exercise (like walking on the treadmill, bike riding, and swimming), and simple forms of yoga. You can also strengthen your muscle strength by lifting light weights and doing muscle stretching regularly.
• Your sitting posture is important, especially when you have pain or inflammation. Try to sit as little as possible and only for a short time (10-15 min). Use back support like a rolled-up towel to minimise pain at the back of your curve. Keep your knees and hips at a right angle.
• You can consume caffeine but not too much, as high caffeine intake may cause irritability, poor sleep, and menstrual cramps.

Intestinal colic: It is a cramp-like pain that originates in the small or large intestine. It is caused by a blockage that keeps food and liquid from passing through the body.

Biliary colic: It is a dull pain in the middle to the abdomen's upper right area. When a gallstone blocks the bile duct, the tube normally drains bile from the gallbladder to the small intestine.

Renal colic: It is a sharp, severe, or intense abdominal pain due to blockage of the urinary tract (kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra) because of urinary stones. 

Dysmenorrhea: It refers to abdominal cramps/pain associated with irregular periods. It occurs just before or during menses. Menstrual cramps that cause throbbing pain in the lower belly during periods may vary from mild to severe.

Pancreatitis: It is inflammation of the pancreas and causes abdominal tenderness and pain.
