Drotaverine

Mechanism of action
Drotaverine inhibits phosphodiesterases hydrolysing cAMP, thereby increasing cAMP concentration, decreasing Ca uptake of the cells and changing the distribution of calcium among the cells.
 It may also have minor allosteric calcium channel blocking properties.
It is a smooth muscle relaxant
