Benefits of Airtio-F Capsule

In 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.

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.

Quick tips

Airtio-F Capsule

  • You have been prescribed Airtio-F Instacaps for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • If at any time your breathing gets worse, please contact your doctor or nurse for advice straightaway.
  • Do not smoke. Smoking causes irritation and damage to the lungs and will make your condition worse.
  • If you have diabetes you may need to check your blood glucose more frequently, as Airtio-F Instacaps can affect the levels of sugar in your blood. Your doctor will advise you about this.
  • Do not discontinue use without consulting your doctor, even if you feel better.
  • If you are overweight, it is advisable to lose weight. This is because being overweight means that you have to work much harder to breathe in to inflate your lungs.
