Hi,
Spasmo Proxyvon is a combination of many drugs. It has dicyclomine, acetaminophen and propoxyphene. Continuous of this drug without any indication can lead to addiction which you are also facing. The main component which is mainly causing the addiction is propoxyphene which is a narcotic pain killer. All though the addiction potential for this is much less than that of morphine, but it can cause addiction. Other components are not addicting.
Now this addiction is not of that much intensity that you require any medication for treatment. One important thing in all treating for any addiction is the motivation and determination. And if you are ready to really leave this drug addiction than you should stop taking this and resist the temptation for few days and after that you will be alright.
As you told that you are physically good and this drug help you in concentration, it shows that your addiction is more of psychological type than physical and for this you have to be determined and motivated.
Thanks and take care
