Medicinal Benefits:

Aerotrop Capsule is used to prevent bronchospasm (narrowing of the airways in the lungs) in adults with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), including bronchitis and emphysema. Aerotrop Capsule contains ‘Tiotropium’, which works by blocking the receptors for acetylcholine, which are released in the cholinergic nerve endings in the airways. Aerotrop Capsule relaxes and widens the airway's openings, making it easier for the air to get in and out of the lungs. Thus, it provides relief from bronchitis and emphysema.
