Salbair-I 100mcg/40mcg Transcaps

Salbair-I 100 mcg/40 mcg Transcaps are inhalation capsules used with a nebulizer device to manage asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other bronchospastic conditions. They provide fast relief from bronchospasm while also helping to reduce airway inflammation and prevent long-term flare-ups.

Composition

• Salbutamol Sulfate 100 mcg (fast-acting bronchodilator)

• Ipratropium Bromide 40 mcg (anticholinergic bronchodilator)

Uses

• Relief of acute bronchospasm in asthma and COPD

• Long-term management of asthma and chronic bronchitis

• Prevention of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction

• Reduction of wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness

How It Works

Salbair-I Transcaps combine two bronchodilators. Salbutamol acts quickly to relax the smooth muscles in the airways, opening the bronchial passages for immediate relief. Ipratropium Bromide helps maintain airway dilation by blocking acetylcholine, reducing mucus secretion and bronchial constriction. Together, they provide both rapid and sustained bronchodilation.
