Alverin is a myotropic antispasmodic, the action of which is not accompanied by an atropine-like effect or ganglioblocking activity. Reduces the increased tone of the smooth muscles of the intestine. Simethicone is a hydrophobic polymeric substance with a low surface tension that reduces gas formation in the intestines and covers the walls of the alimentary canal with a protective film. Pharmacokinetics Alverin After oral administration, alverin rapidly turns into the main active metabolite, which then turns into two secondary metabolites. There is a high renal clearance of all metabolites, indicating that they are excreted by active renal secretion. The maximum plasma concentration of the most active metabolite is reached between 1 and 1 1/2 hours after ingestion. The plasma elimination half-life averages 0.8 hours for alverin and 5.7 hours for the active primary metabolite. Simethicone Simethicone is not absorbed after oral administration.
