Product Description: Papaverine 60mg Injection contains Papaverine Hydrochloride 60mg, a vasodilator that works by relaxing smooth muscles in blood vessels, particularly in the brain, heart, and peripheral areas. This leads to the dilation of blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing spasms in arteries or other muscles.

Papaverine is often used in the treatment of conditions like vascular spasms, including those associated with heart attacks, angina, or cerebral ischemia. It is also sometimes used in the management of certain smooth muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal or urinary tract.

This injection is administered intramuscularly or intravenously under medical supervision. It is often used in emergency settings where rapid relief from vasospasm is required.

Common side effects may include dizziness, flushing, or a feeling of warmth. In some cases, more serious side effects like liver toxicity, low blood pressure, or irregular heartbeats may occur, especially in patients receiving high doses or long-term treatment.

Patients should inform their doctor about any existing medical conditions, particularly heart issues, liver disease, or low blood pressure, as Papaverine may interact with other medications or exacerbate these conditions. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is advised during the course of treatment.
