Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule is indicated as a maintenance treatment for asthma in adults. It combines three drugs: Glycopyrronium Bromide and Indacaterol (bronchodilators), and mometasone furoate (corticosteroids). Glycopyrronium Bromide and Indacaterol relax the muscles of the small airways in the lungs, which helps open the airways and makes it easier for air to get in and out. Mometasone Furoate reduces the inflammation (swelling and irritation) in the small airways in the lungs. This gradually eases breathing problems and also helps to prevent asthma attacks.
