R/C TIOTROPIN F

Tiotropium Bromide (18mcg)& Formoterol DH (12mcg) Powder for Inhalation 

R/C TIOTROPIN F is a combination inhalation powder containing Tiotropium Bromide (18mcg) and Formoterol DH (12mcg). This medication is designed to manage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, providing relief from symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, and chest tightness. Combining these two active ingredients offers a synergistic effect, improving lung function and enhancing the quality of life for patients with respiratory conditions.

Composition

• Tiotropium Bromide (18mcg): Tiotropium is a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) that works by relaxing the muscles around the airways in the lungs, making breathing easier.
• Formoterol DH (12mcg): Formoterol is a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) that helps to keep the airways open, allowing for better airflow and improved breathing.

Mechanism of Action

Tiotropium and Formoterol work through different mechanisms to provide a comprehensive approach to managing COPD and asthma:

• Formoterol DH: It stimulates beta2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs, causing the relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and resulting in bronchodilation.

The combination of these two drugs ensures prolonged bronchodilation, reducing symptoms and the frequency of exacerbations.

Indications

R/C TIOTROPIN F is indicated for:

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): To reduce symptoms, improve lung function, and prevent exacerbations.

Dosage and Administration

• Recommended Dose: One inhalation of R/C TIOTROPIN F per day, preferably at the same time each day.
• Administration: The powder should be inhaled using the provided inhaler device. Patients should follow the instructions carefully to ensure the correct dosage and effective delivery of the medication.

Benefits

1. Improved Lung Function: The combination of Tiotropium and Formoterol significantly enhances lung function, allowing patients to breathe more easily.
2. Reduced Exacerbations: Regular use can decrease the frequency and severity of COPD and asthma exacerbations.
3. Symptom Relief: Provides rapid relief from symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness.
4. Convenience: A once-daily dosage improves patient compliance and convenience.

Side Effects

Like all medications, R/C TIOTROPIN F may cause side effects. Common side effects include:

• Dry Mouth: Tiotropium may cause dryness in the mouth, which can be alleviated by sipping water.
• Cough: Some patients may experience a cough, especially during the initial period of use.
• Headache: Mild headaches may occur but are generally transient.
• Nausea: Some users may feel nauseous after inhalation.
• Tremor and Palpitations: Formoterol may cause tremors or palpitations in some patients.

Precautions and Warnings

• Allergic Reactions: Patients with a known allergy to Tiotropium, Formoterol, or any other ingredients in the inhalation powder should not use R/C TIOTROPIN F.
• Cardiovascular Disease: Caution is advised in patients with cardiovascular disorders, as Formoterol may cause an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.
• Pregnancy and Lactation: The safety of R/C TIOTROPIN F during pregnancy and lactation has not been established. 
• Paradoxical Bronchospasm: Rarely, inhalation of R/C TIOTROPIN F can cause paradoxical bronchospasm, which can be life-threatening. Patients should discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention if this occurs.

Drug Interactions

Patients should inform their healthcare provider about all medications they are currently taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, as R/C TIOTROPIN F may interact with other medications. Notable interactions include:

• Beta-Blockers: These may reduce the effectiveness of Formoterol.
• Diuretics: Concurrent use may increase the risk of hypokalemia.
• Other Long-Acting Beta2-Agonists: Combining with other LABAs can increase the risk of side effects.

Storage

• Temperature: Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat.
• Keep Out of Reach of Children: Ensure the inhaler and medication are stored safely away from children.
