Pharmacy - muscle cramp


Expert: Dr. Ravindra Bhaskar Ghooi - 8/9/2009

Question
My calf muscles are paining daily. i am diabetic and also having hypertension. Though diabetes and blood pressure under control. Will Evion Lc help me


Answer
Hi Nitin,
Muscle cramps are generally due to electrolyte imbalance, but nocturnal cramps are treated with Evion. While you should try evion, I suggest a electrolyte solution like Electral, to be taken daily.
Are you on salt restricted diet? That could be the reason of cramps.
If none of this works the try a tablet of Carisoma at night.
