WHAT IPRAVENT INHALATION SOLUTION IS USED FOR
Ipravent belongs to a group of medicines known as anticholinergic
bronchodilators. Anticholinergic
bronchodilators work by relaxing the bronchial tubes (air passages)
that carry air in and out of your
lungs. This makes breathing less difficult.
Ipravent is used to relieve the symptoms of lung disease such as
asthma or chronic obstructive
bronchitis. It may be used in other conditions where breathing is
difficult, such as after surgery or during
assisted ventilation.
Ipravent may be used for the management of other conditions that are
not mentioned above. Your doctor
will be able to tell you about the specific condition for which you
have been prescribed Ipravent.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY IT HAS BEEN
