Bricanyl Tablets – Terbutaline 5mg Tablets, 100 Tablets
Bricanyl Tablets are a unique and effective way to treat and prevent asthma attacks. The active ingredient, terbutaline sulfate, works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, making it easier for you to breathe. This medication is perfect for those who suffer from asthma or other respiratory conditions. With Bricanyl Tablets, you can finally get the relief you need to live your life to the fullest.
Bricanyl Tablets are used for the regular treatment of breathing disorders such as asthma. They help to relieve tightening of the chest and difficulty breathing (bronchospasm). Bricanyl should not be used alone for the regular treatment of asthma or other breathing conditions. If you are using Bricanyl every day then your doctor should have also prescribed you another type of medication such as an “inhaled corticosteroid”, which helps reduce the swelling and inflammation in your lungs.
Bricanyl Tablets – Terbutaline 5mg can also be used to treat dogs and cats when prescribed by a vet.
