Medicine Description nephroflam 200 mg
nephroflam 200 mg tablets is a medication that contains flavoxate hydrochloride, an antispasmodic agent that alleviates bladder spasms by inhibiting the contractions of the smooth muscle in the bladder wall. It achieves this by blocking the action of acetylcholine at the muscarinic receptors, leading to a reduction in involuntary muscle contractions.
