Utibron Information:

• What

This medication is an inhaler used to treat the symptoms of COPD by relaxing muscles in the airways to improve breathing function. It is made up of glycopyrrolate, an anticholinergic, and indacaterol, a bronchodilator, which work together to facilitate breathing.

• How

Utibron Neohaler is packaged in capsules with a special inhaler device. Every time you’re required to take the medicine, just load a capsule into the inhaler and click the mouthpiece shut. Push the button on the side of the device to pierce the capsule and release the powder into the inhalation chamber. It may take up to two inhalations to get the full dosage from the capsule. Utibron is not a rescue medication and cannot work quickly enough during a bronchospasm attack; use a fast-attacking inhaler if one occurs. The usual dosage is one capsule twice daily, but follow your doctor’s instructions for dosage.

• You have any allergies
• You are taking any other medications, vitamins, or supplements
