Preparing questions in advance can help patients to have more meaningful discussions with their physicians regarding their conditions. Patients may wish to ask their doctor the following antispasmodic-related questions:

1. Might I benefit from taking antispasmodics?
   
   
2. What are the potential side effects with the specific antispasmodic you are recommending for me? Which are likely to resolve with time?
   
   
3. Are there any long term side effects? Will my risk of these side effects change as I age?
   
   
4. Which, if any, side effects should I immediately report to you?
   
   
5. What lifestyle changes, if any, do you recommend to cope with potential side effects?
   
   
6. What should I do if I miss a dose of this medication?
   
   
7. What should I do if I suspect I may have taken too much of this medication?
   
   
8. Will the medication interfere with any other drugs I am currently taking?
   
   
9. Are there any over-the-counter medications or products I should avoid when taking this medication?
   
   
10. Should I take this medication at a particular time of day?
    
    
11. Should I avoid taking this medication with any type of food or beverage (e.g., grapefruit juice)?
