Papaverine

Papaverine is in a class of drugs called vasodilators. Papaverine relaxes veins and arteries, which makes them wider and allows blood to pass through them more easily. These actions may help to increase the amount of oxygen-rich blood in your brain, heart, and muscles.

Papaverine (Injection)

Papaverine injection is a vasodilator that works by relaxing smooth muscles in your blood vessels to help them dilate (widen). This lowers blood pressure and allows blood to flow more easily through your veins and arteries.

Papaverine injection is used to treat many conditions that cause spasm of smooth muscle, including heart attack, chest pain, circulation problems, or disorders of the stomach or gallbladder.
