IPRAVENT INHALER

How IPRAVENT INHALER Works

• IPRAVENT INHALER is a type of medication known as an anticholinergic bronchodilator. This means it specifically targets the muscles surrounding your airways to help you breathe more easily. Think of your airways as pipes that carry air to and from your lungs. When these pipes become constricted or tightened, it becomes difficult to breathe, leading to symptoms like wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. IPRAVENT INHALER works by blocking the action of a natural substance in the body called acetylcholine, which can cause these airway muscles to tighten.
• By blocking acetylcholine, IPRAVENT INHALER effectively relaxes these muscles, causing the airways to widen or dilate. This widening effect allows more air to flow freely into and out of your lungs, making it easier to breathe. The medication helps to relieve the symptoms of bronchospasm, which is the sudden constriction of the airways, often associated with conditions like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
• In simpler terms, IPRAVENT INHALER acts like a key that unlocks and opens up your airways, providing relief from breathing difficulties. It's important to use IPRAVENT INHALER exactly as prescribed by your doctor to achieve the best possible results and manage your respiratory condition effectively.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them.

• Headache
• Dizziness
• Throat irritation
• Cough
• Dryness in mouth
• Nausea

• Keep IPRAVENT INHALER away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store IPRAVENT INHALER at room temperature.

• IPRAVENT INHALER helps patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma breathe easier. This medication works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, allowing more air to flow into the lungs. It's important to remember that IPRAVENT INHALER is not a rescue medication and should not be used for immediate relief of sudden breathing difficulties. Always keep your rescue inhaler with you for those situations.
• A common side effect of IPRAVENT INHALER is dry mouth. To alleviate this, try rinsing your mouth frequently, maintain good oral hygiene practices, increase your water intake, and suck on sugarless candies. These simple measures can help keep your mouth moist and comfortable.
• To prevent fungal infections in your mouth and throat, gargle with warm water after each inhalation of IPRAVENT INHALER. This will help to wash away any residual medication and reduce the risk of infection.
• It is recommended that you take your first dose of IPRAVENT INHALER under medical supervision. This is because, in rare cases, the medication can cause wheezing or tightening of the airways (bronchospasm) immediately after use. Your doctor can monitor you for any adverse reactions and provide appropriate treatment if necessary.
• While using IPRAVENT INHALER, your doctor may periodically monitor your blood potassium levels. This is to ensure that your potassium levels remain within a healthy range.
• Only a small amount of IPRAVENT INHALER is absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation, which means that serious side effects are unlikely. However, it's still important to be aware of potential side effects and to report any concerns to your doctor.
• Remember that IPRAVENT INHALER is for inhalation only. Do not swallow the tablet. For optimal results, take IPRAVENT INHALER at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels of medication in your system. Consistency is key to managing your respiratory condition effectively.
