Prevention of bronchospasm in patients with asthma.
Longterm maintenance treatment of COPD.
Airz Fb Rotacaps (Formoterol + Glycopyrronium Bromide) works by relaxing the muscles in the airways, widening the airways, and reducing inflammation. Formoterol acts as a LABA, stimulating beta2-adrenergic receptors in the airways, leading to bronchodilation. Glycopyrronium bromide blocks the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that causes bronchoconstriction, further contributing to airway opening.
Store at room temperature, between 20°C and 25°C (68°F and 77°F). Protect from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
The recommended dosage of Formoterol + Glycopyrronium Bromide varies depending on the individual patient's needs and medical history.
