Can Bentyl be used for menstrual cramps?

by IHopeThisNameAintTaken, Sep 13, 2004 12:00AM
I have bad menstrual cramps every month, and I also have a plentiful supply of Bentyl in my house.  I know Bentyl is intended to be used for stomach problems like diverticulosis, but someone told me that I *might* be able to take it for menstrual cramps.  Can anyone (hopefully a doctor) shed some light on this?

I think you could probably call your Pharmacist and ask their opinion. I wouldn't take anything for cramps that was not approved by my OBGYN or Family doctor directly though.
