Tiomate Transcaps 15's

Tiomate Transcaps is a long-acting bronchodilator combination used to relax the airway muscles and improve breathing in certain chronic respiratory conditions. Its detailed uses include:

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Tiomate Transcaps helps relax and open the airways, making breathing easier for people with COPD, including chronic bronchitis or emphysema.
• Asthma: It may be used as part of long-term asthma treatment to help prevent symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and chest tightness, when prescribed by a doctor.
• Chronic Bronchitis: It helps keep the airways open, which may reduce breathing difficulties and improve airflow in people with chronic bronchitis.
• Emphysema: It helps improve airflow by relaxing the airway muscles, which may make physical activities easier for people with emphysema.

Tiomate Transcaps provides long-acting airway relaxation to support better breathing and symptom control in chronic respiratory conditions. Its benefits include:

• Helps keep the airways open for longer periods, making everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, and light household tasks easier and more comfortable.
• Helps reduce breathing symptoms such as breathlessness, chest tightness, and wheezing, supporting more consistent day-to-day respiratory control.
• Regular use as prescribed may help reduce the risk of worsening respiratory symptoms and flare-ups, which can contribute to fewer urgent medical visits.
• Better control of breathing symptoms may support more comfortable sleep, physical activity, and overall quality of life.

• It is recommended to take Tiomate Transcaps twice a day or as advised by your doctor.
• It is a capsule with powdered medication which is placed in a Rotahaler/Transhaler, a plastic inhalation device that releases the medication when you breathe. The capsule should be placed at the base of the rotahaler/transhaler, and completely twist the mouthpiece until you hear a click sound. Then, breathe in through the mouthpiece deeply and hold your breath for 10 seconds. Remove the device and breathe out normally.
• Remove the inhaler and hold your breath for a few seconds, then breathe out slowly.
• Rinse your mouth with water and spit it out after using it to avoid fungal infections in the mouth and throat.
• It is for inhalation only. Do not swallow the capsule.

• Avoid respiratory irritants: Stay away from tobacco smoke, air pollution, dust, and strong chemical fumes, as these can trigger sudden airway narrowing and reduce the effectiveness of Tiomate Transcaps .
• Stay well-hydrated: Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps thin the mucus in your lungs, making it much easier to clear when you cough.
• Practice breathing exercises: Incorporate doctor-approved techniques, such as pursed-lip breathing or diaphragmatic breathing, to help strengthen your lungs and manage occasional breathlessness.
• Engage in regular physical activity: Participate in moderate, lung-friendly exercises like walking or swimming as advised by your doctor to improve your cardiovascular endurance.
• Maintain a healthy diet: Eat smaller, nutrient-dense meals if larger meals leave you feeling too full or make it harder to breathe comfortably.

• Do not use as a rescue inhaler: Tiomate Transcaps is a long-term maintenance medicine. It will not stop a sudden, acute attack of breathlessness. Always keep your fast-acting rescue inhaler with you for emergencies.
• Always rinse and spit: Make it a strict habit to rinse your mouth with water and spit it out after every single dose to significantly lower your risk of developing oral thrush (a fungal mouth infection).
• Keep track of your doses: Regularly check the built-in dose counter on your inhaler to ensure you do not run out of medicine unexpectedly.
• Keep the device dry: Clean the mouthpiece of your device once a week using a clean, dry tissue or cloth. Never wash the device with water unless the manufacturer’s instructions explicitly say to do so.
• Watch for sudden breathing tightness: If your breathing suddenly worsens or you experience wheezing immediately after inhaling your dose, stop using Tiomate Transcaps and seek emergency medical care right away.
