Study of a stomach-relaxing medication before painless upper endoscopy
Part of Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a medication (hyoscine butylbromide capsule) given before a painless upper endoscopy (a tube with a camera to examine your esophagus and stomach) to see if it helps relax the stomach and reduce discomfort during the procedure. Doctors will compare the medication to a placebo (a pill with no active medicine) to check if it is safe and effective.
