About Orcibest 10 mg Tablet 15's

Orcibest 10 mg Tablet 15's belongs to the class of drugs called 'bronchodilators' used for treating symptoms of breathing problems like asthma and COPD.

COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Orcibest 10 mg Tablet 15's contains 'Orciprenaline' that works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Thereby, it makes breathing easier by opening airways in a patient affected with asthma and COPD.
