BACKGROUND AND PRIOR ART-
Drotaverine (INN, also known as drotaverin) is an antispasmodic drug, structurally related to papaverine. Drotaverine is a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 4, and has no anticholinergic effects. Drotaverine has been shown to possess dose-dependant analgesic effects in animal models.
Drotaverine has been shown to be effective in paracervical block in managing pain during hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy when administered together with mefenamic acid. Drotaverin has also been tested in combination with rimantadine for antiviral activity against A and B type influenza.
Drotaverine is sold under brand name No-Spa (Chinoin Pharmaceutical and Chemical Works, Hungary, a member of the Sanofi-Aventis.
Diclofenac (marketed under many brand names, see below: Trade names) is a non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) taken to reduce inflammation and as an analgesic reducing pain in certain conditions. The name is derived from its chemical name: 2-(2,6-dichIoranilino) phenylacetic acid.
In the United Kingdom, India, Brazil and the United States, it may be supplied as either the sodium or potassium salt, in China most often as the sodium salt, while in some other countries only as the potassium salt. Diclofenac is available as a generic drug in a number of formulations. Over the counter (OTC) use is approved in some countries for minor aches and pains and fever associated with common infections.

According to United States Patent Application 20070093462 /WO 2007/044693 A 2 wherein Disclosed are ionic liquids and methods of preparing ionic liquid compositions of active pharmaceutical, biological, nutritional, and energetic ingredients.
Also disclosed are methods of using the compositions described herein to overcome polymorphism, overcome solubility and delivery problems, to control release rates, add functionality, enhance efficacy (synergy), and improve ease of use and manufacture.
According to WO/2006/079099/AU 2006/206166 A 1 wherein The present invention relates to a novel chemical process that provides novel vehicle derivatives that are exceptional 1,2- or 1,3-aminothiol specific reagents for conjugation to unprotected targeted compounds (e.g., polypeptides, peptides, or organic compounds) having or modified to have a 1,2- or 1,3 aminothiol group. The invention further relates to the methods of using novel water-soluble polymer derivatives and conjugates thereof.
However there is no formulation or composition of diclofenac, glycofurol and Drotaverine as a synergistic composition with optimized stability and less reconstitution time.
According to a Chinese patent CA Patent 1183454, An injectable formulation containing a soluble salt of clavulanic acid and a soluble salt of an .alpha.-aminopemcillin or cephalosporin has its stability on reconstitution improved by the incorporation therein of glycofurol.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention refers to combined pharmaceutical composition comprises diclofenac, drotaverine and glycofurol with the pharmaceutically accepted excipients.
According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the present pharmaceutical composition comprising Drotaverine which is a musculotropic drug acting directly on smooth muscle cells. Drotaverine has a dual mechanism of action. Drotaverine inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase IV (PDEIV).
This cause an increase in cyclic adenosine monophosphate level (cAMP), which results in decrease in concentration of free calcium ions (Ca2+). This process inhibits myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) leading to the dephosphorylation of actomyosin phosphate complex thus causing relaxation of smooth muscles.
Simultaneously Drotaverine inhibits calmodulin (CM). The decrease in Ca2+ ions along with the inhibition of CM leads to the inhibition of "Calmodulin-Calcium Complex" (CM-Ca2+) formation. Drotaverine is well and quickly absorbed from jejunum and ileum. The peak plasma concentration reaches between 45-60 minutes. Half-life of absorption of Drotaverine is 12 minutes. The onset of action of Drotaverine on oral administration is about 12 minutes and injectable form is very quick and it's safe in all kind of administration.
Drotaverine rapidly penetrates into the organs after oral administration. The peak concentration of the drug in lungs, kidney etc, appears in half a minute and after the injection proving very rapid distribution of the drug.
The main advantage of this combination is that, the route of administration of Drotaverine does not influence its metabolism. The metabolite of Drotaverine is 4'-desethyl-drotaveraldine. The metabolites are inactive and the spasmolytic effect is exerted by the unchanged drug in the body.
It shows enhanced efficacy for the treatment of some diseases which are Gastrointestinal colic, Biliary colic, Renal colic. Dysmenorrhea, Abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome, Pre and

Post lithotripsy, Post surgical smooth muscle spasm, Post-MTP (Medical termination of pregnancy) and D&C (Dilatation and curettage)
The Colic is the term that refers to the pain produced by obstruction or spasm of hollow abdominal organs such as:-
Galf Bladder and Bile Ducts - Biliary Colic
Ureter - Ureteric Colic
Stomach / small / large intestine - GI Colic thereof
Its useful for the treatment of dysmenorrhea , which is one of the most common gynecological disease. It is classified as primary and secondary dysmenorrhea.
Another active ingredient is Glycofurol which is used as solvent to dissolve water-insoluble compounds. It is stable but combustible and incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. The main unique feature of this ingredient is less painful, water soluble, less irritant, better bio availability, high effectiveness and ready to use. It has been reported to be non-toxic and non-irritating when diluted in water.
Glycofurol, also called tetrahydrofurane js a substance available on the market with the empiric formula (C2H40) XC4H802, in which X is about 2. This substance is well mixable with water and soluble in ether, ethanol, propanol and glycerol and has a low toxicity.
According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the present pharmaceutical composition comprising diclofenac i.e. 2-[(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino]benzene acetic acid monosodium salt, has a recognised anti-inflammatory activity and for this reason has long been used as the active principle in various types of pharmaceutical formulations used in treating painful conditions, including post-traumatic and postoperative, and in all rheumatic diseases.
Diclofenac acts by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, the principal cause of inflammation and pain. To achieve the maximum effectiveness in pain relief the active principle must reach the systemic circulation as soon as possible after administration, so consequently the injectable form has always been favoured particularly for the treatment of acute inflammations of the musculo-skeletal system.

Diclofenac is used to treat pain, inflammatory disorders, and dysmenorrhea. Inflammatory disorder may include musculoskeletal complaints, especially arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, osteoarthritis, dental pain, TMJ, spondylarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout attacks, and pain management in cases of kidney stones and gallstones. An additional indication is the treatment of acute migraines. Diclofenac is used commonly to treat mild to moderate post-operative or post-traumatic pain, particularly when inflammation is also present, and is effective against menstrual pain and endometriosis.
As long-term use of diclofenac and similar NSAIDs predisposes for peptic ulcer, many patients at risk for this complication are prescribed a combination (Arthrotec) of diclofenac and misoprostol, a synthetic prostaglandin analogue, to protect the gastric mucosa.
Mechanism of diclofenac is a unique member of the NSAIDs. There is some evidence that diclofenac inhibits the lipoxygenase pathways, thus reducing formation of the leukotrienes (also pro-inflammatory autacoids). There is also speculation that diclofenac may inhibit phospholipase A2 as part of its mechanism of action. These additional actions may explain the high potency of diclofenac - it is the most potent NSAID on a broad basis.
