What is Asthalin Nebuliser Solution?
Asthalin Nebuliser Solution is used to treat coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and other breathing problems caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. The active ingredient salbutamol is considered a bronchodilator that can increase air flow to the lungs by relaxing the muscles in the airways. Some people may also use the medication to prevent exercise induced bronchospasms.
How is Asthalin Nebuliser Solution used?
Asthalin Nebuliser Solution should be applied using a face mask or mouthpiece with a nebulizer that changes the solution into a fine mist to inhale. The prescribed dose is usually taken 2 to 4 times daily or as directed by your doctor. Dosage will depend on the patient’s condition and their response to the treatment, contact a doctor for the correct dosage. By inhaling the medication directly into the lungs, it will act directly on the lungs where it is needed most and also reduce the risk of side effects.
