Comment:
I used this drug in suppository form after a stent was put in place subsequent to a lazer procedure for kidney stones. The absorbtion rate was rapid but it took two applications to notice some relief from the nausea I experienced. I did have some side effects such as impaired night vision and slight dizzyness. This drug was fairly effective and provided a good level of relief.

I was in and out of the hosp for 40 days beg 2008 with duodenum blockage and bleeding this medication was given to me via IV i was in constant pain and vomiting blood this medication worked exceptionally well and relieved muscle extreme stomach spasms. The oral medication is good takes a while compared to IV but it helped just the same
