Bricanyl 5 mg Tablet 20's

Bricanyl 5 mg Tablet 20's is a respiratory medicine given for bronchospasm. It is indicated for preventing and reversing bronchospasms (wheezing, chest tightness, trouble breathing) associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of long-term lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes) causing restricted airways. Bricanyl 5 mg Tablet 20's helps reduce symptoms of asthma and COPD.

Bricanyl 5 mg Tablet 20's contains Terbutaline, which belongs to the class of bronchodilators. It works by relaxing and opening the air passages in the lungs, making breathing easier. This helps provide relief from bronchospasm associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
