antispasmodic agent | Mebeverine is a myophilic antispasmodic agent that acts directly on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract to relieve spasticity, at the same time does not affect the normal intestinal movement. These nerves Impulse cause spasms when the intestine is stimulated for any reason, and mebeverine blocks the nerves Impulse of the brain by replacing acetylcholine. The researchers believe that Mebeverine can also inhibit calcium channel supplementation, by interfering with the movement of calcium ions, can slow muscle contraction. Unlike other antispasmodic drugs, Mebeverine has the characteristic that site-specific drugs do not compete with receptors throughout the body, but especially those that are only attached to the intestine, patients taking Mebeverine do not experience any side effects associated with other antispasmodic or anticholinergic drugs, nor do Mebeverine usually affect the cardiovascular or central nervous system. The original research was approved for marketing in China in 2016. In 2018, the market sales of anticholinergic drugs and synthetic antispasmodic preparations in China exceeded 2 billion yuan. The market is far from meeting the health consumption demand of people suffering from digestive system diseases and residents in China, the market of anticholinergic and synthetic antispasmodic preparations in China will be further expanded. |
