Product introduction

Airz-FB Capsule is a combination of three medicines. It is used in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It works in various ways and reduces the symptoms of the disease such as coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.

Airz-FB Capsule should be used in the dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor. Use it regularly and as long as your doctor has prescribed it to get maximum benefits from the medicine. Don’t stop using the medicine even if you feel better unless your doctor tells you to. If you stop, your breathing problems could get worse.

Airz-FB Capsule is generally safe and effective but some common side effects include dizziness, headache, vomiting, and stuffy nose (nasal congestion). These side effects are usually mild and should gradually improve as your body gets used to this medicine. Let your doctor know if you are bothered by any of this, or if you experience any other side effects which you think are caused by the medicine.

Before using Airz-FB Capsule, let your doctor know if you have any preexisting medical conditions. Let your doctor also know all the other medicines you are taking. Additionally, to make sure it is safe for you, tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking this medicine. You shouldn’t smoke while on treatment with this medicine. Smoking causes damage to your lungs and will make your condition worse.

How Airz-FB Powder for Inhalation works

Airz-FB Capsule is a combination of three medicines : Glycopyrrolate, Formoterol, and Budesonide. Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic medication. It works by blocking the activity of a chemical messenger (acetylcholine) in the brain. Formoterol is a bronchodilator. It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widens airways. This makes breathing easier. Budesonide is a steroid which works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies.

Quick tips

  • You have been prescribed Airz-FB Capsule for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • If at any time your breathing gets worse, please contact your doctor or nurse for advice straightaway.
  • Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
  • Do not smoke. Smoking causes irritation and damage to the lungs and will make your condition worse.
  • If you have diabetes you may need to check your blood glucose more frequently, as Airz-FB Capsule can affect the levels of sugar in your blood. Your doctor will advise you about this.
  • If you are overweight, it is advisable to lose weight. This is because being overweight means that you have to work much harder to breathe in to inflate your lungs.
