AB-Flo SR Tablet

AB-Flo SR Tablet is prescribed for managing breathing difficulties associated with asthma, bronchitis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD). By relaxing the muscles in the airways and widening them, the medicine makes it easier to breathe and helps reduce chest tightness.

This tablet is usually recommended to be taken with food, preferably in the evening. Taking it at the same time every day improves its effectiveness. The exact dosage and treatment duration depend on the patient’s medical condition and the doctor’s advice. It is important to take the medicine regularly as instructed. If a dose is missed, it should be taken once remembered, but if the next scheduled dose is near, the missed one should be skipped. The medicine does not act immediately during sudden breathing trouble, so patients are advised to always keep a rescue inhaler handy.

Possible side effects
Some individuals may experience stomach-related problems such as discomfort, bloating, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, or heartburn. Other possible effects include nausea, dizziness, loss of appetite, rashes, itching, drowsiness, nasal inflammation, red bumps on the skin, or changes in white blood cell count. These effects are usually mild and temporary, but if they persist or become troublesome, medical guidance should be sought. Avoiding alcohol and smoking is generally recommended during the course of treatment.

Precautions before use
Patients with liver, kidney, or heart conditions should inform their doctor before starting this medicine. It is also necessary to share details of other medicines being taken since interactions may occur. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should take this medicine only after proper consultation with their healthcare provider.
