How it works
Alverine citrate is a direct-acting antispasmodic that relaxes smooth muscle by inhibiting calcium ion influx and acting as a selective serotonin (5-HT1A) receptor antagonist, reducing abnormal contractility.
Storage
Store below 25°C in a dry place, away from direct light. Keep out of reach of children.
