Uses of Ambrodil-XP Capsule

Benefits of Ambrodil-XP Capsule

In Treatment of Asthma

Ambrodil-XP Capsule can help prevent the onset of an asthma attack if it is taken before exercise or exposure to some “triggers”. These may include house dust, pollen, pets and cigarette smoke. This medicine will allow you to exercise more freely without worrying about getting symptoms such as wheezing, coughing and shortness of breath. It allows you to live your life more freely without worrying so much about things that set off your symptoms.

In Treatment of Bronchitis

Bronchitis leads to chest congestion and wheezing. Ambrodil-XP Capsule relieves symptoms of bronchitis by clearing congestion and relaxing airways.

In Treatment of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

Ambrodil-XP Capsule helps the airways in your lungs stay open. It relaxes the muscles of these airways. This makes it easier for air to get in and out. It will relieve symptoms such as tightness in your chest, shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing and help you carry out your daily activities more easily. This medicine is safe and effective. It usually starts to work within a few minutes and the effects can last up to several hours. Do not stop using it unless you are advised to by your doctor.

Dr. Gopal Samdani

Paediatrics

Your child may be suffering from Asthama. Asthma can be hard to diagnose. Your child's doctor will consider the nature and frequency of symptoms and may use tests to rule out other conditions and to identify the most likely cause of his or her symptoms. A number of childhood conditions can have symptoms similar to those caused by asthma. To make things more complicated, these conditions also commonly co-occur with asthma. So your child's doctor will have to determine whether your child's symptoms are caused by asthma, a condition other than asthma, or both asthma and another condition.

Most coughs and colds are viral induced illness. For such illness, the best we can offer is a symptom specific treat. Paracetamol available over the counter can be used for fever. Please use saline nasal drops to open blocked nose. I would advise you to get your kid examined by a paediatrician if symptoms persists or worsen.Your queries were being answered by paediatrician Pranav Gupta, New Delhi.
