Ipravent Rotacaps 30's

Ipravent Rotacaps is used to treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a condition in which airways narrow and swell, resulting in difficulty breathing, coughing, and wheezing (a whistling sound). COPD is a chronic (long-term) condition caused by a group of lung diseases, such as emphysema (a condition in which the air sacs of the lungs are damaged) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of tubes (bronchi) that carry air to and from the lungs).

Ipravent Rotacaps contains ‘Ipratropium bromide’, which is an anticholinergic. It is used to treat symptoms associated with chronic lung conditions and reduce the risk of frequent asthma attacks. It acts as a bronchodilator and works by dilating the muscles in the airway. It also reduces mucus (phlegm) production. This effect helps to improve lung function and reduce breathing difficulty. It is a short-acting drug.

Ipravent Rotacaps is available only for inhalation. Use this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of Ipravent Rotacaps are headache, dizziness, epistaxis (nosebleed), nausea, nasal dryness, nasal irritation, stomach upset, and cough, and throat irritation after inhalation. Most of these side effects resolve themselves without requiring medical attention. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, seek medical help immediately.

Do not take Ipravent Rotacaps if you are allergic to ‘ipratropium bromide’ or any other ingredients present in it. Before taking Ipravent Rotacaps , inform your doctor if you have a history of glaucoma (an eye condition), urinary retention and an enlarged prostate gland. Inform your doctor if you are using any prescription, non-prescription or nutritional supplements; also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Ipravent Rotacaps contains ‘ipratropium bromide’, which is an ‘anticholinergic’ drug. It is a widely used bronchodilator. It can effectively reduce symptoms of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) and other lung conditions. It can also decrease the risk of recurrent asthma episodes. It helps to improve lung function. It relaxes the muscles along the airway passage, easing the breathing difficulty. It reduces phlegm production, improving cough symptoms. Besides, it has a quick onset of action.

• Breathlessness
• Headache, dizziness
• Nausea, stomach upset 
• Epistaxis (nosebleed), nasal dryness, nasal irritation and cough
• Throat irritation after inhalation

Do not take Ipravent Rotacaps if you are allergic to ‘ipratropium bromide’ or any ingredients present in it. This medicine should be used with caution in patients with glaucoma (increased inside pressure of the eye) and urinary retention. The inhalation should be used carefully. Ensure the medicine does not reach the eye as it may result in eye problems such as mydriasis (dilation of the pupil), increased pressure inside the eye, and angle-closure glaucoma (a condition caused by blocked drainage canals in the eye), eye pain, and visual halos. If you develop paradoxical bronchospasm (sudden narrowing of bronchi muscles leading to obstructed breathing), you should discontinue treatment immediately and consult a doctor. This medicine should be used with caution in pregnant and breastfeeding women. 

• Know your triggers like allergens, such as pollen, dust, and food items that make your asthma severe.
• Quit smoking and avoid passive smoking. Smoking also reduces the effectiveness of the medicine.
• Eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly to strengthen your breathing muscles and boost your immune system.
• Learning breathing exercises will help you move more air in and out of your lungs.
