Alibendol is primarily used as a spasmolytic agent, helping to relieve smooth muscle spasms, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract. It is often prescribed to treat conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and other functional gastrointestinal disorders. By relaxing the muscles in the digestive system, it alleviates symptoms like abdominal pain, cramping, and discomfort. Additionally, it may be used in combination with other medications to enhance its therapeutic effects in managing digestive issues. Its application is focused on improving quality of life for patients suffering from chronic or acute gastrointestinal spasms.
