Overview
Airz Capsules contain the active ingredient Glycopyrrolate, a medication classified as a muscarinic antagonist. It is used primarily for the treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which includes conditions like chronic bronchitis and emphysema. These conditions lead to the obstruction of airflow, causing breathing difficulties. Glycopyrrolate helps manage these symptoms by relaxing the muscles in the airways, making breathing easier.
How It Works
Airz Capsules contain Glycopyrrolate, which works by targeting and blocking the muscarinic receptors in the smooth muscles of the airways. This prevents the neurotransmitter acetylcholine from binding to the receptors, which results in the relaxation of the muscles surrounding the airways. This relaxation helps widen the airways, reducing airflow obstruction and improving the ease of breathing.
As a long-acting bronchodilator, Airz Capsules provide consistent relief for those with COPD, typically requiring twice-daily administration for effective symptom management.
