About Avapar Tablet

CAMYLOFIN+DICLOFENAC belongs to the class of medications called ‘analgesics’ used to treat abdominal cramps. It is used to treat abdominal cramps or pain associated with various gastrointestinal conditions such as intestinal colic (blockage in the intestine), biliary colic (gallstones), renal colic (kidney stones), dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps), and pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), etc.

CAMYLOFIN+DICLOFENAC contains Diclofenac and Camylofin. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).

Camylofin is an antispasmodic, which relaxes the stomach and gut (intestine) and stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms).
