About Systaspas Forte 20mg/50mg Injection

Systaspas Forte 20mg/50mg Injection is a combination drug primarily used to treat Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and abdominal cramps due to dysmenorrhea (painful irregular periods).

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Include more glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate, Vitamin D, and calcium-enriched supplements. Besides this, turmeric and fish oils can help reduce inflammation in the tissue.
  • Do not do heavy exercise as it may increase your joint pain in arthritis. Instead, you can do stretching, low-impact aerobic exercise (like walking on a treadmill, bike riding, and swimming), and simple forms of yoga. 
  • In chronic conditions of arthritis or joint pain, add fish (like salmon, trout, tuna, and sardines) to your diet, as they are enriched with omega-3 fatty acids that minimize chemical cytokines, which increase inflammation.
  • Your sitting posture is important, especially when you have pain and 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. Besides this, you can use a footrest if required.
