About Amiline Tablet

Amiline Tablet belongs to the class of drugs called bronchodilators. It is indicated for the relief of bronchospasm associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Amiline Tablet contains Aminophylline, which helps to provide relief of bronchospasm associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Aminophylline relaxes and opens air passages in the lungs, thereby it making breathing easier.

Amiline Tablet should be used as prescribed by a doctor. The dose of this medicine will be advised by your doctor based on your medical condition. Amiline Tablet may cause certain side effects, including upset stomach, stomach pain, diarrhea, headache, restlessness, and irritability. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Amiline Tablet should be avoided if you are allergic to it. Let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, allergic reactions, and current medication history before taking Amiline Tablet . Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Avoid smoking and the consumption of tobacco, as it may affect the effectiveness of aminophylline.

Asthma: It is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. The symptoms of asthma include wheezing (whistling sound while breathing), shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough, especially at night. The symptoms of mild persistent asthma may occur more than two times a week and up to 4 nights a month, whereas, in the case of severe persistent asthma, the symptoms occur several times every day and most nights. The treatment for asthma includes medication, breathing exercises and self-care.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): It is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes). The major cause of COPD is smoking tobacco. Also, long-term exposure to fumes and chemicals may lead to COPD.
