Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded oral suspension formulation of Phenobarbital 3.24 mg/ml and Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids 0.025 mg/ml. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of disease states, including seizures, spasms, and cramps. The synergistic effect of these two active ingredients allows for a more potent treatment than if either ingredient were used independently.

Phenobarbital, a barbiturate, functions as a sedative and anticonvulsant, making it an effective treatment for seizures. On the other hand, Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids are anticholinergic agents that can help alleviate spasms and cramps. The combination of these two ingredients in this formulation enhances the overall effectiveness of the treatment.

This formulation is provided in an oral suspension form, a liquid dosage form in which one or more ingredients are dispersed uniformly throughout a liquid medium. This ensures a homogeneous mixture for administration, making it easier to administer and more palatable for patients. It is crucial to note that this formulation should only be used under the direct supervision of a healthcare professional.

If you have any inquiries about this formulation or wish to understand more about how it can help treat your patients' disease states, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. We are committed to assisting you in finding the most suitable treatment options for your patients.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Phenobarbital 3.24 mg/ml/Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids 0.025 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded formulation that combines two potent medications, Phenobarbital and Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids, to treat a variety of conditions. Phenobarbital, an anticonvulsant, is primarily used to manage and reduce the frequency of seizures. On the other hand, Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids are anticholinergic agents that are effective in treating spasms in the gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and biliary tract.

This unique combination of medications is particularly beneficial in managing conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, urinary incontinence, and biliary colic. When administered orally, both Phenobarbital and Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids are absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body. The Phenobarbital component works by reducing the severity and frequency of seizures, while the Belladonna Leaf Alkaloids work by relaxing the muscles in the gastrointestinal, urinary, and biliary tracts. This dual action helps to alleviate spasms and improve symptoms associated with the aforementioned conditions.

It is crucial to adhere to the prescribed dosage when taking this medication. Overdosing or underdosing can lead to undesirable effects or reduced efficacy. To minimize the risk of stomach upset, it is recommended to take this medication with food or a full glass of water. Side effects such as nausea, vomiting, or dizziness should be reported to your doctor immediately.

If you have any queries about this compounded formulation or its mechanism of action, do not hesitate to ask. It is our responsibility to ensure you are well-informed about your treatment options and how they work.
