Medical Description

AB Phylline capsule is used for breathing difficulty associated with lung-related disorders like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains acebrophylline as its active ingredient. AB Phylline promotes muscle relaxation around the airway and inhibits mucous secretion, thus clearing the airway and also easing breathing. AB Flo capsule, Acphy capsule, Macphylline capsule, Abevia capsule and Broncofil capsule also contain acebrophylline as their active ingredient.

Take AB Phylline capsule as prescribed by your doctor at the exact dose and duration. You can take the AB Phylline tablet with or without food. This medicine should not be used during an acute asthma attack. Inform your doctor about all your medical and medication history, as well as any supplements, before starting the treatment with AB Phylline.

Along with medication, following lifestyle modifications will help to manage your asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD):

Avoid Triggers: Identify and steer clear of triggers that can worsen symptoms, including allergens, smoke, air pollution, strong odours, and respiratory infections. Minimising exposure to these triggers through preventive measures can reduce symptoms and enhance lung function.

Quit Smoking: If you smoke, quitting is crucial. Smoking is a major risk factor for COPD and exacerbates asthma symptoms. Seek support from healthcare providers, who can provide smoking cessation strategies and connect you with support groups for a successful quit-smoking journey.

Maintain Good Indoor Air Quality: Ensure cleanliness and proper ventilation in your home. Regularly clean, dust, and vacuum to minimise exposure to dust mites and allergens. Use air purifiers or filters to improve indoor air quality, and avoid using strong cleaning products or aerosol sprays that may irritate the airways.
