To avert is to turn away or to prevent. You might avert your gaze or avert a disaster â either way, you are avoiding something. Averting has that sense of deflecting, turning away, or preventing something (usually bad) from happening.
A Stacy Wiegman, PharmD , Pharmacy, answered. Hyoscyamine sulfate is an antispasmodic medication that helps to control the symptoms of various disorders of the intestines, stomach, and urinary tract. Hyoscyamine sulfate provides relief from colic, cramps, and painful muscle contractions by decreasing stomach fluid secretion and decreasing stomach and intestinal motion.
Levsin (hyoscyamine) is an anti-spasmodic that relaxes the muscles of the gut and prevents spasms. Because of its relaxing effect Levsin can treat intestinal spasms, and also reduce pain and diarrhea caused by IBS.Levsin comes in tablet form.evsin is a lifesaver. I have been using Levsin for years...I was first diagnosed with IBS at age 17. Nothing would help me, except for heavy drugs prescribed by emergency room physicians. I live in Canada, and after about five years of using the drug it was discontinued here.
