Quick tips

  • You have been prescribed Doxma-A Tablet for prevention and treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems. Always keep a fast-acting (rescue) inhaler with you.
  • If at any time your breathing gets worse, please contact your doctor or nurse for advice straightaway.
  • Do not smoke. Smoking causes irritation and damage to the lungs and will make your condition worse.
  • Do not discontinue use without consulting your doctor, even if you feel better.
