About Nintib 100 Capsule

Nintib 100 Capsule belongs to the category of 'anti-fibrotic medicine', and it is primarily used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in adults. IPF is an irreversible disease marked by a progressive decline in lung function. The tissues in the lungs become swollen and scarred over time, due to which it gets difficult to breathe deeply. The scarring makes it hard for the lungs to work properly.

Nintib 100 Capsule contains 'Nintedanib', which helps reduce the scarring and swelling in the lungs by decreasing the release/activity of naturally occurring growth factors in the body, allowing you to breathe better. Nintib 100 Capsule helps in slowing down the progress of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Always use this medicine as your doctor has told you or per the package leaflet. You must keep to your doctor's instructions to get the maximum benefit. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as nausea, tiredness, diarrhoea, indigestion, loss of appetite, headache, and photosensitivity.
