(Tiotropium Bromide)

Description:
Spiriva Handihaler 18 mcg is a long-acting bronchodilator used to help manage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema, and to reduce the number of COPD flare-ups. It contains tiotropium bromide, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) that works by relaxing and dilating the airways in the lungs, making it easier to breathe.

Spiriva Handihaler 18 mcg is administered using the Handihaler device, which delivers a precise dose of medication directly to the lungs. It is intended for once-daily use, providing 24-hour relief of COPD symptoms. Spiriva Handihaler is not for the treatment of acute bronchospasm or sudden breathing problems, so always have a rescue inhaler for emergency use.

Key Features:

• Tiotropium Bromide: A long-acting anticholinergic medication that works by blocking the action of acetylcholine to help open and relax the airways, allowing for easier breathing.
• Once-Daily Dosing: Convenient once-daily use, providing continuous 24-hour symptom relief and helping you manage COPD symptoms throughout the day and night.
• Handihaler Device: The Handihaler is a dry powder inhaler that uses capsules of medication. The device is easy to use and ensures the proper delivery of the drug.
• Pre-measured Doses: Each capsule of Spiriva contains a precise dose of 18 mcg of tiotropium bromide, ensuring accurate medication delivery.
