About Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's

Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's belongs to the class of drugs called bronchodilators used to prevent and treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's contains Tulobuterol which works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Thereby, it makes breathing easier by opening the airways.

Use Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to use Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.

Most of these side effects of Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult a doctor before using Tulomax 2mg Transdermal Patch 1's. If your breathing worsens or you often wake up at night with asthma, experience chest tightness in the morning, or last longer than usual, please consult a doctor immediately as these might be signs indicating that your asthma is not controlled properly and requires an alternate or additional treatment.

  • Eat foods rich in potassium such as tomatoes, bananas, asparagus, oranges, potatoes, avocados, dark leafy greens and beetroots as potassium is important for lung function, and a deficiency in potassium may cause breathing problems.
  • Drink plenty of fluids every day to thin mucus which makes it easier to cough out.
  • Maintain a diet that includes complex carbohydrates such as lentils, beans, barley, oats, quinoa, bran, peas and potatoes with skin.
  • Limit or avoid the intake of caffeinated drinks such as tea, coffee, soda, and energy drinks like red bull.
  • Eat protein-rich foods such as meat, fish (particularly salmon, sardines and mackerel), eggs and poultry.
