Isoxsuprine Hydrochloride is a smooth muscle relaxant and blood vessel dilator that helps increase blood circulation in the body. It is often prescribed to relax the uterus in pregnancy to reduce contractions and prevent premature labor (as advised by a doctor). It is also used in conditions like peripheral vascular disease, muscle cramps caused by poor circulation, and Raynaud’s phenomenon. By improving blood flow, it helps relieve spasms, pain, and discomfort associated with reduced oxygen supply to tissues.
