Product Overview
About Oslif Breezhaler
Oslif Breezhaler is a medicine used to keep the airways open in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
What it is used for
Oslif Breezhaler is used for maintenance (regular) treatment of COPD, a long-term disease in which the airways and air sacs inside the lungs become damaged or blocked, leading to difficulty breathing.
How it is used
Oslif Breezhaler capsules, which contain a powder for inhalation, are only used with a Oslif Breezhaler inhaler and must not be swallowed. To receive a dose, the patient places a capsule into the inhaler and breathes the powder in through the mouth. The recommended dose is one 150 microgram capsule, once a day at the same time each day. The doctor may increase the dose to one 300 microgram capsule once a day in cases of severe COPD. The medicine can only be obtained with a prescription.
How it works
The active substance in Oslif Breezhaler, indacaterol, is a beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist. It works by attaching to beta-2 receptors that are found in the muscle cells of many organs and that cause the muscles to relax. When Oslif Breezhaler is inhaled, indacaterol reaches the receptors in the airways and activates them. This causes the muscles of the airways to relax, helping to keep the airways open and allowing the patient to breathe more easily.
