ATROVENT INHALER SPR

Atrovent Inhaler (Ipratropium Bromide) is a prescription inhalation aerosol used to manage and prevent symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. Ipratropium is an anticholinergic agent that helps to relax and open the airways by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in bronchoconstriction (narrowing of the airways).

The inhaler typically delivers the medication in a metered-dose form, allowing precise amounts of the drug to be inhaled directly into the lungs. This helps reduce symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. Atrovent Inhaler is often used regularly to control and prevent these symptoms and may be prescribed in combination with other inhaled medications for more effective asthma or COPD management.

It is usually administered several times a day as prescribed by a healthcare provider. Common side effects can include dry mouth, cough, or irritation of the throat. Regular use and adherence to prescribed dosages are important for optimal control of respiratory symptoms.
