Description
Chemical Name: Tiotropium ( ty-OH-tro-pee-um)
SPIRIVA is indicated for long term, once a day maintenance treatment for bronchospasm (wheezing or difficulty in breathing) that is associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. SPIRIVA works by relaxing the muscles in your airways and enlarging the airways. This way more air can move in/out of your lungs, in turn helping you breathe better. This medication comes with a handheld inhalation device because the capsule contains dry powder that is inhaled through the mouth. SPIRIVA is only used to prevent bronchospasm attacks. Do not use it during an attack because it will not work quickly enough -- use a fast-acting inhaler instead. Available with prescription only.
|
Directions
SPIRIVA is generally used once a day, every day, to help maintain any breathing problems relating to COPD and to reduce the possibility of COPD flare-ups. SPIRIVA is a dry powder that comes in a capsule form. Patients must insert the capsule in the HandiHaler and inhale the powder through your mouth. Avoid getting this medication in your eyes. If this does happen, immediately rinse with water. Do not swallow the capsule. Carefully read the Instructions for use.

SPIRIVA can cause serious side effects, including allergic reaction. Symptoms may include raised red patches on your skin (hives), itching, rash, and swelling of the lips, tongue, or throat that may cause difficulty in breathing or swallowing.
