Description
Forglyn Forte respicap is a prescription inhalation medicine used for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a long-term lung disease that causes breathing difficulty. It contains two active ingredients, glycopyrrolate and formoterol, which belong to bronchodilator medicines.
Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic medicine that helps relax and widen the airways by blocking certain nerve signals in the lungs. Formoterol is a long-acting beta-agonist that works by relaxing airway muscles and improving airflow.
This medicine helps improve breathing, reduces symptoms such as breathlessness, coughing, and chest tightness, and helps patients carry out daily activities more comfortably.
Forglyn Forte respicap is a maintenance treatment and should be used regularly as prescribed. It is not meant for the relief of sudden breathing attacks or acute bronchospasm.
