Uses of Airz Capsule

Benefits of Airz Capsule

Treatment of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is a group of lung diseases that cause breathing difficulties. COPD is caused by swelling of the airways that carry air in and out of the lungs. Airz Capsule relaxes the muscles of these airways and widens it. This makes you breathe easy and gives relief from symptoms such as tightness in your chest, shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing. Avoid smoking and minimise your exposure to pollution, dust and fumes. Along with that, a little exercise each day can help you stay strong. Talk to your doctor about how much exercise is good for you.

Side effects of Airz Capsule

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
Common side effects of Airz
  • Sore throat
  • Dryness in mouth
  • Insomnia (difficulty in sleeping)
  • Gastroenteritis

How to use Airz Capsule

How Airz Capsule works

Airz Capsule is an anticholinergic medication. It works by blocking the activity of a chemical messenger (acetylcholine) in the brain.
