Airtropium Capsule makes breathing easier for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. This medicine is for inhalation only. The tablet should not be swallowed. It should be taken at the same time each day. It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing. Only small amounts of Airtropium Capsule may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence serious side effects are unlikely.
