About Amiline Tablet 10's

Amiline Tablet 10's belongs to the class of drugs called bronchodilators. It is indicated for the relief of bronchospasm associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Amiline Tablet 10's contains Aminophylline, which helps to provide relief of bronchospasm associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Aminophylline relaxes and opens air passages in the lungs, thereby it making breathing easier.

Amiline Tablet 10's should be used as prescribed by a doctor. The dose of this medicine will be advised by your doctor based on your medical condition. Amiline Tablet 10's may cause certain side effects, including upset stomach, stomach pain, diarrhea, headache, restlessness, and irritability.
