How Cyclopam Works

These may include menstrual cramps, tooth pain, irritable bowel syndrome (intestinal disorder), joint pain, headache. Dicyclomine is an anticholinergic and antispasmodic medicine that helps block the chemical (acetylcholine) that causes the muscle to contract. In this way, it helps to relieve spasms. The exact mechanism of action of paracetamol is not known, but it helps to relieve pain due to its analgesic properties.
