DUOLIN FORTE ROTACAPS – 1 BOTTLE OF 30 CAPSULE

DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps are designed for the treatment and management of asthma and COPD. Each rotacap contains a combination of Ipratropium Bromide and Levosalbutamol, which work synergistically to relax and open the airways. This dual-action approach provides fast and effective relief from respiratory symptoms, including wheezing, shortness of breath, and tightness in the chest. DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps are used with a Rotahaler device for easy and efficient delivery directly to the lungs.

Usage Instructions:

1. Prepare the Rotahaler: Insert one DUOLIN FORTE Rotacap into the Rotahaler device.
2. Inhale: Place the mouthpiece in your mouth and breathe in deeply through your mouth.
3. Hold Breath: Hold your breath for 10 seconds or as long as comfortable to allow the medication to reach deep into the lungs.
4. Exhale: Remove the Rotahaler from your mouth and breathe out slowly.
5. Dispose of the Rotacap: Remove the empty capsule from the Rotahaler and dispose of it properly.

Medicinal Advantages:

DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps combine two bronchodilators, Ipratropium Bromide and Levosalbutamol, offering a powerful treatment for managing asthma and COPD. The fast-acting formula provides rapid relief from symptoms, improves lung function, and reduces the frequency of asthma attacks and COPD exacerbations.

Mechanism of Action:

DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps work by relaxing the muscles around the airways in the lungs, which opens the airways and makes breathing easier. Ipratropium Bromide is an anticholinergic that prevents bronchoconstriction, while Levosalbutamol is a beta-agonist that directly relaxes bronchial muscles, providing quick and effective bronchodilation.

Off-Label Uses:

DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps may be used off-label for other respiratory conditions that involve bronchospasm or difficulty breathing, as advised by a healthcare provider.

Expert Advice:

For optimal control of asthma or COPD, use DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps regularly as prescribed by your doctor. Always have your Rotahaler device with you for timely use in case of sudden breathing difficulties. Do not exceed the recommended dose, and consult your healthcare provider if symptoms persist or worsen.

1. Avoid Overuse: Using DUOLIN FORTE Rotacaps more frequently than prescribed can increase the risk of side effects.
