Product introduction

Besvil 100 Octacap is a combination of two medicines that opens the airways and makes it easier to breathe. It is used in the treatment of asthma (wheezing and shortness of breath) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (a lung disorder in which the flow of air to the lungs is blocked).

It is an Inhalational corticosteroids.

Benefits of Besvil Capsule

In Treatment of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

Besvil 100 Octacap helps the airways in your lungs to stay open. It relaxes the muscles of these airways. This makes it easier for air to get in and out. It relieves symptoms of COPD, such as tightness in your chest, shortness of breath, wheezing, and coughing, and helps you carry out your daily activities more easily. This medicine is safe and effective. It usually starts to work within a few minutes and the effects can last up to several hours. Do not stop using it unless you are advised to by the doctor.

In Treatment of Asthma

Besvil 100 Octacap is a combination medicine that works by reducing and preventing swelling and inflammation in your lungs. This medicine does not stop an asthma attack that has already started, but prevents its symptoms, such as tightness in your chest, wheezing, breathlessness, and coughing. This allows you to carry out your daily activities more easily and confidently. Keep taking it regularly as prescribed even if you do not have any symptoms, as it may take a few weeks for this medicine to show full effects. Stopping it abruptly may bring back the symptoms.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

Quick tips

  • Besvil 100 Octacap ‘dampens down’ inflammation in the lungs to provide long-term (maintenance) treatment of asthma and prevent disease progression.
  • Besvil 100 Octacap will not work for an ongoing asthma attack. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing.
  • Learn the correct technique of using metered dose inhalers (MDI) and dry powder inhalers (DPI) to ensure that the right amount of medication reaches your lungs, and side effects are minimized.
  • Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
  • Take it at the same time every day to prevent asthma attacks.
  • Do not open and close the cover unnecessarily as you will lose the medicine.
  • Never breathe out into the mouthpiece.
  • Only minuscule amounts of Besvil 100 Octacap may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects such as weight gain are unlikely.
