Spiriva 18mcg Inhalational capsules (Tiotropium Bromide)

Spiriva 18mcg Inhalational Capsules, containing Tiotropium Bromide, are a long-acting anticholinergic medication primarily used for the management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. This inhaler delivers a consistent dose of medication directly to the lungs, providing effective relief from respiratory symptoms.

Key benefits of Spiriva include:

• Improved lung function: Spiriva helps to open airways, making it easier to breathe and reducing breathlessness.


• Once-daily dosing: The convenient once-daily administration allows for better adherence to treatment regimens.


• Long-lasting effects: Tiotropium Bromide provides sustained bronchodilation for up to 24 hours, ensuring prolonged relief from symptoms.


• Reduced exacerbations: Regular use of Spiriva can lead to fewer flare-ups and hospitalizations related to COPD.


• Easy to use: The inhalation capsules are designed for use with the HandiHaler device, making it simple for patients to administer their medication correctly.

Patients using Spiriva should follow their healthcare provider's instructions carefully and report any unusual symptoms or side effects. It is important to note that Spiriva is not a rescue medication and should not be used for immediate relief of acute asthma or COPD symptoms.
