Phenobarbital-belladonna Alk

Drug Details

This medication combines belladonna alkaloids (hyoscyamine, atropine, and scopolamine) with phenobarbital. It is designed to alleviate symptoms of stomach and intestinal cramps. The belladonna alkaloids, which are anticholinergic and antispasmodic agents, work by slowing down gut movements and relaxing the muscles in the stomach and intestines. Meanwhile, phenobarbital, a barbiturate sedative, aids in reducing anxiety by creating a calming effect on the brain.
