WHAT TRIMBOW IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Trimbow is a medicine to help breathing that contains the three active
substances:
•
beclometasone dipropionate,
•
formoterol fumarate dihydrate and
•
glycopyrronium.
Beclometasone dipropionate belongs to a group of medicines called
corticosteroids which act to
reduce the swelling and irritation in your lungs.
Formoterol and glycopyrronium are medicines called long-acting
bronchodilators. They act in
different ways to relax the muscles in your airways, helping to open
the airways wider and allowing
you to breathe more easily.
Regular treatment with these three active substances helps to relieve
and prevent symptoms such as
shortness of breath, wheezing and cough in adult patients with
obstructive lung disease.
Trimbow is used for the regular treatment of
•
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults
•
asthma in adults.
Trimbow can reduce exacerbations (flare-ups) of COPD and asthma
symptoms.
COPD is a serious long-term disease in which the airways become
blocked and air sacs
