Relief of gastric distension using nasogastric intubation will help to relieve pain. '''NSAIDs''' (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), especially flunixin meglumine, are commonly used to control the pain associated with colic. The potential for gastric mucosal problems and renal toxicity should also be considered when administering NSAIDs. Spasmolytics may also relieve the signs of colic.
