Uses of Trimium Transhaler
Benefits of Trimium Transhaler
In Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is a group of lung diseases that cause breathing difficulties. COPD is caused by swelling of the airways that carry air in and out of the lungs. Trimium Transhaler relaxes the muscles of these airways and widens it. This makes you breathe easy and gives relief from symptoms such as tightness in your chest, shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing. Avoid smoking and minimise your exposure to pollution, dust and fumes. Along with that, a little exercise each day can help you stay strong. Talk to your doctor about how much exercise is good for you.

Quick tips
Trimium Transhaler
- Trimium Transhaler helps relieve symptoms of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) such as cough, wheez and breathlessness.
- This medicine is for inhalation only. The tablet should not be swallowed.
- Take it at the same time each day.
- It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing.
- Dry mouth may occur as a side effect. Frequent mouth rinses, good oral hygiene, increased water intake and sugarless candy may help.
- Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
- Take the first dose of this medicine under medical supervision as it may cause wheezing or tightening of the airways (bronchospasm) immediately after using.
- Very little amount of Trimium Transhaler may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects are unlikely.
- Do not stop taking it suddenly even if you don’t currently have any symptoms as that may cause your breathing problems to come back.
