CompositionLOFTAIR 3 PACK OF 10 CAPSULES is a medicine used for the long-term management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It helps make breathing easier and can reduce the frequency of COPD flare-ups.
This is a combination medicine belonging to the groups of medicines called long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA) and long-acting beta-agonists (LABA), which relax and open the airways. The capsule is not swallowed; it is used with an inhaler device so the medicine can be breathed in. It is used regularly, not as a reliever for sudden breathlessness.
Some general measures can help alongside this medicine. These include quitting smoking, having any recommended vaccinations, and following any breathing exercises or rehabilitation your doctor advises.
Before using this medicine, tell your doctor about any heart problems, high blood pressure, glaucoma, or urinary or prostate problems, and any other medicines you take. Tell your doctor if your breathing suddenly worsens, or if you notice eye pain, a fast heartbeat, or difficulty passing urine. Use it regularly even when you feel well, and check your inhaler technique with your doctor or pharmacist.
