About Seamaf Spas Tablet

Seamaf Spas Tablet is used to treat abdominal pain, dysmenorrhea (period pain), and colicky pain. Abdominal (tummy) pain occurs between the chest and pelvic region (below the belly button and leg). Menstrual cramps, also known as dysmenorrhea, are characterised by cramps and pain during menstruation. A colic is a form of pain that starts and stops abruptly.

Seamaf Spas Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Dicyclomine (anti-spasmodic) and Mefenamic acid (NSAID). Dicyclomine works by relieving contractions associated with the smooth muscles of the abdomen. Mefenamic acid works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers called prostaglandins. This helps reduce mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Together, Seamaf Spas Tablet helps in relieving pain.

In some cases, Seamaf Spas Tablet may cause common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, dry mouth, and weakness.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Abdominal pain and cramps: Abdominal pain occurs between the chest and pelvic region, generally known as stomach or tummy pain. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Muscle spasm is the sudden involuntary contractions of the muscle, which can be painful and uncomfortable. When the nerve impulses that control the muscle movements are damaged or interrupted, it could lead to muscle spasms. The common causes of abdominal pain include inflammation, infections, intestinal disorders, and obstruction/blockage.

Dysmenorrhea: Menstrual cramps, also known as dysmenorrhea, are characterised by cramps and pain during menstruation due to heavy flow. Pain, cramps, and discomfort during periods are normal. However, excessive pain during periods is not normal and requires medication. Menstrual cramps cause throbbing, aching pain in the lower belly that occurs before or during the periods.
