Spasfon (Teva) coated tablets

Spasfon is a widely recognized antispasmodic medication originally developed in France. It is primarily used to treat pain related to functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, bile ducts, bladder, and uterus. The active ingredients are phloroglucinol and trimethylphloroglucinol. For decades, it has been a staple in French pharmacies for relieving smooth muscle spasms.

While the brand has historical roots with French laboratories (notably Labaz and later Sanofi), the specific product shown is marketed by Teva Santé. Manufacturing for Spasfon tablets is largely centered in France, particularly at sites like the Sens plant, which specializes in dry pharmaceutical forms. Ownership of the Spasfon brand name has transitioned through various pharmaceutical mergers, with Teva now holding a major portion of the distribution and production rights for several versions in the European market.
