Pharmacological properties.
Pharmacodynamics.
Mechanism of action and pharmacodynamic effects.
Spark is a myotropic antispasmodic with a selective effect on the smooth muscles of the digestive tract. It relieves spasms without inhibiting normal intestinal motility. Because this action is not mediated by the autonomic nervous system, there are no typical anticholinergic side effects.
Clinical efficacy and safety.
Significant improvements in the predominant symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (eg, abdominal pain, stool characteristics) have generally been observed in peer-reviewed and outcome-controlled clinical studies.
All mebeverine dosage forms were generally safe and well tolerated at the recommended dosage regimen.
Children.
Clinical studies of tablets and capsules were conducted only in adults. Clinical efficacy and safety data from clinical studies, as well as post-marketing experience with mebeverine pamoate suspension in patients over 3 years of age, have demonstrated that mebeverine is an effective, safe drug that is well tolerated.
Clinical studies of mebeverine suspension have shown that it is effective in reducing the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome in children. Further open-label, baseline-controlled studies of the mebeverine suspension confirmed the effectiveness of the drug.
The dosage regimen for tablets and capsules is based on the safety and tolerability of mebeverine.
Pharmacokinetics.
Absorption.
Mebeverine is rapidly and completely absorbed after oral administration in tablet form. Due to the prolonged release of the drug from the capsule, it can be taken twice a day.
Distribution.
With repeated use of mebeverine, no significant accumulation occurs.
Biotransformation.
Mebeverine hydrochloride is mainly metabolized by esterases, which in the first stage of metabolism cleave ester bonds to form veratric acid and mebeverine alcohol. In plasma, demethylcarboxylic acid (DMCA) is the main metabolite. The half-life of DMKK at steady state is 5.77 hours. With repeated use of capsules (200 mg 2 times a day), Cmax of DMKK was 804 ng/ml, and tmax was about 3 hours.
The relative bioavailability of extended-release capsules was found to be optimal with an average ratio of 97%.
Excretion.
Mebeverine is not excreted unchanged, it is completely metabolized, and the metabolites are excreted almost completely. Veratric acid is excreted in the urine. Mebeverine alcohol is also excreted by the kidneys in the form of the corresponding carboxylic acid (CA) or demethylcarboxylic acid (DMCA).
Children.
Pharmacokinetic studies have not been conducted in children.

Pharmacodynamics. Mechanism of action and pharmacodynamic effects. Spark is a myotropic antispasmodic with a selective effect on the smooth muscles of the digestive tract. It relieves spasms without inhibiting normal intestinal motility. Since this action is not mediated by the autonomic nervous system, there are no typical anticholinergic side effects.
Clinical efficacy and safety. Significant improvements in core symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (eg, abdominal pain, stool characteristics) have generally been observed in reference-controlled, value-controlled clinical studies. All mebeverine dosage forms were generally safe and well tolerated at the recommended dosage regimen.
Children. Clinical studies of tablets and capsules were conducted only in adults. Clinical efficacy and safety data from clinical studies, as well as post-marketing experience with the use of mebeverine pamoate suspension in patients over the age of 3 years, demonstrated that mebeverine is an effective, safe drug that is well tolerated. Clinical studies of mebeverine suspension have shown that it is effective in reducing the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome in children. Further open, baseline-controlled studies of the mebeverine suspension confirmed the effectiveness of the drug. The dosage regimen for tablets and capsules is based on the safety and tolerability of mebeverine.
Pharmacokinetics. Absorption. Mebeverine is rapidly and completely absorbed after oral administration in tablet form. Due to the prolonged release of the drug from the capsule, it can be taken twice a day. Distribution. With repeated use of mebeverine, no significant accumulation occurs. Metabolism. Meverine hydrochloride is mainly metabolized by esterases, which in the first stage of metabolism cleave ester bonds to form veratric acid and mebeverine alcohol. In plasma, demethylcarboxylic acid (DMCA) is the main metabolite. The half-life of DMKK at steady state is 5.77 hours. With repeated use of capsules (200 mg 2 times a day), the Cmax of DMCA was 804 ng/ml, and the tmax was about 3:00. The relative bioavailability of extended release capsules was found to be optimal with an average ratio of 97%. Conclusion. Mebeverine is not excreted unchanged, it is completely metabolized, and the metabolites are eliminated almost completely. Veratric acid is excreted in the urine. Mebeverine alcohol is also excreted by the kidneys in the form of the corresponding carboxylic acid (CA) or demethylcarboxylic acid (DMCA). Children: Pharmacokinetic studies have not been conducted in children.
Indications: Adults and children over 10 years of age: - symptomatic treatment of abdominal pain and cramps, intestinal disorders and intestinal discomfort in irritable bowel syndrome; - treatment of gastrointestinal spasms of secondary origin caused by organic diseases.
Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the inactive components of the drug.
Types of interactions: Interaction studies with alcohol have been conducted. In vitro and in vivo animal studies have demonstrated the absence of any interaction between mebeverine hydrochloride and ethanol.
Features of use: Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. There are only very limited data on the use of mebeverine in pregnant women. Reproductive toxicity studies in animals are lacking. Meverine hydrochloride is not recommended for use during pregnancy. It is unknown whether mebeverine or its metabolites are excreted in breast milk. The excretion of mebeverine into the breast milk of animals has not been studied. Spark ® should not be used during breastfeeding. There is no clinical evidence of effects on male or female fertility, but animal studies do not indicate harmful effects of mebeverine.
The ability to influence the reaction rate when driving vehicles or other mechanisms. No studies have been conducted on the effect on the ability to drive a car or operate machinery. The pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profile, as well as post-marketing experience, do not indicate a harmful effect on the ability to drive a car and operate machinery.
Directions for use and dosage: For oral use. Take the capsules with a sufficient amount of water (at least 100 ml). Chewing is not recommended due to the capsule coating being designed to provide sustained release. Adults and children over 10 years old take 1 capsule 2 times a day (morning and evening). The duration of use is not limited. If one or more doses are missed, the patient should take the next dose as directed. Dose(s) missed should not be taken again. Special Populations: Dosing studies have not been conducted in elderly patients or patients with impaired renal and/or hepatic function. Considering the available post-marketing data, there is no specific risk for elderly patients, patients with impaired renal and / or liver function.
