What the hell use is packaging bog standard 8/500 codeine/paracetamol as something fancy and charging an arm & a leg for it? Argh!
I've never been able to take Feminax because of the caffeine, but hrm. I have hyoscine-N-butylbromide here in the form of Buscopan, an IBS/gallstone/generic digestive system antispasmodic. If it makes the uterus contract, it's news to me - since I've been on it for gallstones I've found it helps tremendously with the extra ick that menstruation causes my digestive system. The leaflet just says "talk to your doctor or pharmacist if breastfeeding". How useful.
I could probably ask one of my friendly useful identical twin pharmacists for advice for you, if still needed.
