Description

Roflutab tablet is used for treating long-term lung conditions that make breathing difficult, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This occurs when the airways in the lungs become blocked or damaged, usually due to smoking or prolonged exposure to harmful chemicals or pollution. The condition tends to worsen over time. It works by opening the airways, facilitating easier breathing. Its main ingredient is Roflumilast.

It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication that helps to reduce inflammation in the lungs and throughout the body in individuals with COPD. It functions by inhibiting an enzyme that is critical to the inflammation process. Targeting various forms of this enzyme helps reduce inflammation and improve symptoms in patients with COPD. Swallow with water. Do not chew or crush it. You may take it with or without food.
