Spasmodic colic accounts for a large proportion of colic cases seen in first-opinion practice, however, little is known about its causes. It generally produces a mild colic, due to increased peristaltic activity in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cases are usually easily resolved by treating with a spasmolytic such as Buscopan, and a mild analgesic such as phenylbutazone.
