About Derisone-L Respicaps

Derisone-L Respicaps is a combination medicine used to treat asthma. Asthma is a respiratory condition caused by hypersensitive airways, which become inflamed, swollen and filled with mucous, making breathing difficult. Symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, and cough.

Derisone-L Respicaps contains Beclomethasone Dipropionate (corticosteroids) and Levosalbutamol (bronchodilators). Levosalbutamol works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Beclomethasone Dipropionate works by preventing the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions. Thus, Derisone-L Respicaps makes breathing easier.

Use Derisone-L Respicaps as prescribed. In some cases, Derisone-L Respicaps may cause certain common side effects such as thrush, hoarseness of voice and headache. These side effects do not require acute medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you should talk to your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding before using Derisone-L Respicaps .

  • Asthma: Derisone-L Respicaps reduces and prevents asthma symptoms like wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): Derisone-L Respicaps treats COPD symptoms by decreasing inflammation and calming airway muscles.
  • Control of airway inflammation: Derisone-L Respicaps contains beclomethasone, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways, improving breathing.

Key Benefits

Derisone-L Respicaps is a combination of respiratory medicine containing Beclomethasone Dipropionate and Levosalbutamol. It is used primarily to treat asthma. Beclomethasone Dipropionate is a steroid that works by inhibiting and suppressing inflammatory mediators and inflammatory cells. Levosalbutamol is a short-acting beta-agonist, which stimulates the airways' smooth muscle cells to relax, easing the free flow of air. Thus, Derisone-L Respicaps is a potent antidote for asthma breathing problems and treating the inflammation and swelling that constitutes asthma.
