Can Buscopan Be Taken For Severe Pain And Spasms In Back?
I m in excruciating pain with spasms in my back. I assume I ve either pulled a muscle or that a prior prolapsed disc has flared up again. As the pain is in spasms according to movement, would buscopan help? It s the only sort of antispasmodic I have in the house and I can t even walk at the moment, let alone drive to go out. Paracetamol doesn t help much.

Good evening. Well no buscopan is only good for stomach pains and cramps. It is not good for muslce spasms at the back . You will need to try a muscle relaxant like tizanidine
