Bronkolin 2 Tablet 10

Bronkolin 2 Tablet is used for the relief of bronchospasm in asthma and managing symptoms of chronic bronchitis and emphysema, supporting lung function particularly when inhaled therapies are not an option.

Uses of Bronkolin 2 Tablet are:

• Asthma: Relieves bronchospasm and eases wheezing and chest tightness.
• Chronic Bronchitis and Emphysema: Manages symptoms of these reversible obstructive airway diseases.
• Long-Term Maintenance: Supports lung function when inhaled therapies are not an option.

Follow these instructions while taking Bronkolin 2 Tablet 10:

• Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.

• Take at evenly spaced times throughout the day.

• Do not crush or chew the tablet.

• This medicine works more slowly than inhalers and should not be used for sudden breathing problems.

• Keep your quick-relief inhaler available for sudden symptoms.

• Continue taking this medicine regularly for the best results.

Bronkolin 2 Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Bronkolin 2 Tablet 10 contains salbutamol (2 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Beta-2 receptor stimulation: Salbutamol selectively stimulates beta-2 receptors found on bronchial smooth muscle, leading to relaxation of the airways.

• Adenylate cyclase activation: By stimulating beta-2 receptors, salbutamol activates the enzyme adenylate cyclase, which increases cyclic AMP (cAMP) and protein kinase A activity in cells.

• Calcium reduction: The increased protein kinase A activity lowers intracellular calcium levels, which is essential for muscle contraction, thereby promoting relaxation of the airway muscles.

• Mast cell stabilisation: Some studies suggest that salbutamol may modestly reduce the release of mediators, such as histamine, from mast cells; however, this is not its primary therapeutic effect.

• Store Bronkolin 2 Tablet 10 at room temperature in its original packaging.

• Store the medicine in a tightly sealed, light-resistant container, protected from moisture and direct sunlight.

• Store all medicines safely out of reach and sight of children.

• Check the expiry date on the pack and never use the medicine after this date.

• Follow any specific storage instructions mentioned on your product packaging.

• Avoid excess caffeine: Reduce consumption of coffee, strong tea, and energy drinks as these can worsen tremors and palpitations (rapid heartbeat) that may occur when taking salbutamol.

• Avoid smoking: Cigarette smoke irritates the airways and can worsen asthma or chronic bronchitis symptoms, reducing the effectiveness of Bronkolin 2 Tablet 10.
