Sequadra Inhaler Kit

Sequadra Inhaler Kit belongs to the group of medicines called bronchodilators indicated for long-term, maintenance treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the bronchial tube lining). In COPD, the muscles around the airways tighten, making it difficult to breathe.
 
Sequadra Inhaler Kit is a combination of two medicines, namely: Indacaterol and Glycopyrronium. Indacaterol relaxes and widens the openings in the airways, making it easier to breathe. Glycopyrronium decreases the secretions in the airways. Together, Sequadra Inhaler Kit provides relief from COPD.
 
You are advised to use Sequadra Inhaler Kit for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as upper respiratory tract infection, inflammation of the sinuses, runny/stuffy nose, headache, dizziness, and stomach upset. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
 
Do not stop taking Sequadra Inhaler Kit on your own as it might cause worsening of symptoms. Consult your doctor before taking Sequadra Inhaler Kit if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Sequadra Inhaler Kit may cause dizziness, so drive with caution. Avoid consuming alcohol as it might cause increased dizziness. Sequadra Inhaler Kit is not recommended for children below 18years as the safety and effectiveness have not been established. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and the medicines you are taking to avoid any interactions.
