Lelafree 10 Mg 30 Tablets

Lelafree 10 Mg 30 Tablets

Description:

Lelafree 10 mg 30 tablets is a prescription oral bronchodilator medicine containing bambuterol, a long‑acting beta2-adrenoceptor agonist used in the long-term management of asthma and other chronic obstructive airway diseases. Bambuterol is a prodrug of terbutaline that helps relax the smooth muscles of the airways, leading to bronchodilation and improved airflow, making breathing easier and reducing the frequency of asthma symptoms such as wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. It is typically used as a maintenance therapy and not for immediate relief of acute asthma attacks.

Indications:

• Long-term management and prevention of bronchospasm in patients with asthma.
• Adjunct treatment in chronic bronchitis associated with reversible airway obstruction.
• Management of emphysema with reversible component of airway obstruction.
• Reduction of nocturnal asthma symptoms and improvement of lung function in patients requiring long-acting bronchodilator therapy.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Bambuterol hydrochloride – 10 mg per tablet.
• Excipients: Exact excipient composition and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website. Refer to the package insert for full ingredient list.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by a physician experienced in the management of asthma or chronic obstructive airway disease.
• Adults: The usual dose is often 10 mg once daily in the evening. The dose may be adjusted by the physician based on clinical response and tolerability. Do not exceed the maximum recommended daily dose as advised by your doctor.
• Elderly or patients with renal or hepatic impairment: Dose adjustment may be required; follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
• Children: Pediatric dosing, if applicable, must be determined strictly by a pediatrician; do not administer to children without medical advice.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew unless your doctor or pharmacist specifically advises otherwise.
• Can be taken with or without food; take at the same time each day to maintain consistent bronchodilator effect.
• This medicine is for maintenance therapy only and is not intended for relief of acute asthma attacks. Always keep a fast-acting (rescue) inhaler available as prescribed.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides long-acting bronchodilation by relaxing airway smooth muscles, helping to keep airways open for easier breathing.
• Helps reduce the frequency and severity of asthma symptoms such as wheezing, cough, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.
• Supports better control of chronic bronchitis and emphysema with reversible airway obstruction, improving overall respiratory function.
• May decrease nocturnal asthma symptoms and nighttime awakenings due to breathing difficulties, contributing to improved sleep quality.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to bambuterol, terbutaline, or any of the excipients.
• Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disorders such as ischemic heart disease, arrhythmias, hypertension, or heart failure, as beta2-agonists may cause tachycardia and changes in blood pressure.
• Use carefully in patients with hyperthyroidism, diabetes mellitus, or seizure disorders, as bambuterol may exacerbate these conditions.
• May cause hypokalemia, especially at high doses or when used with diuretics, corticosteroids, or xanthines; periodic monitoring of serum potassium may be required in high-risk patients.
• Not intended for the relief of acute asthma attacks. In case of sudden worsening of breathing, use your prescribed rescue inhaler and seek immediate medical attention.
• If you experience chest pain, severe palpitations, marked tremor, or worsening shortness of breath, stop use and contact your doctor immediately.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or planning pregnancy. Use during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
• Consult your doctor before use if breastfeeding; it is not known with certainty how much of the active metabolite passes into breast milk.
• Inform your doctor about all medicines you are taking, especially other beta-agonists, beta-blockers, diuretics, corticosteroids, xanthines, MAO inhibitors, or tricyclic antidepressants due to possible interactions.
• Consult your doctor before use if you have liver or kidney impairment, as dose adjustment may be necessary.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical supervision.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include tremor, headache, palpitations, mild tachycardia (increased heart rate), nervousness, and muscle cramps.
• Gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, vomiting, or stomach discomfort may occur in some patients.
• Less common side effects can include dizziness, sleep disturbances, flushing, or sweating.
• Serious side effects (seek immediate medical attention): severe chest pain, marked or irregular heartbeat, severe shortness of breath, significant drop in potassium levels (manifesting as muscle weakness, cramps, or arrhythmias), allergic reactions such as rash, itching, swelling of the face or throat, or difficulty breathing.
