Your doctor will decide how much you need to improve your symptoms. Take it for as long as it is prescribed for you. Do not miss even a single dose if in any case you missed a dose take it as soon as you remember it. It does not work immediately or prevent the already started breathing trouble hence always carry your medical inhaler with you for an emergency.

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Unicontin-E 600 Tablet CR may be taken with or without food but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

Unicontin-E 600 Tablet CR is a bronchodilator. It works by relaxing the muscles of the airways and widens airways. This makes breathing easier.
