About Asthalon-DM Tablet

Asthalon-DM Tablet is used to prevent and treat symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). 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).

Asthalon-DM Tablet is a combination of three drugs: Acebrophylline (bronchodilator), Desloratadine (antihistamine), and Montelukast (leukotriene receptor antagonist). Acebrophylline works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Additionally, it also acts as a mucolytic (cough/sputum thinner) agent and helps in thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. This helps to cough out easily and makes breathing easier by opening airways. Desloratadine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Montelukast works by blocking the action of chemicals called leukotrienes that cause inflammation (swelling) and increased mucus production in the airways. Thereby reducing inflammation, mucus production, and narrowing in the airways.   

Take Asthalon-DM Tablet as prescribed. You are advised to take Asthalon-DM Tablet for as long as your doctor has recommended it based on your medical condition. Some people may experience nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, headache, and restlessness. Most of these side effects of Asthalon-DM Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor. 

If you are allergic to Asthalon-DM Tablet or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If your breathing worsens or you often wake up at night with asthma or experience chest tightness in the morning, please consult a doctor immediately, as these might be signs indicating that your asthma is not controlled properly and requires an alternate or additional treatment. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Asthalon-DM Tablet . Do not take Asthalon-DM Tablet if you have a heart rhythm disorder that causes fast heartbeats. Avoid taking Asthalon-DM Tablet if you have low blood pressure, irregular heartbeats, hemodynamic instability (unstable blood pressure), had a heart attack, kidney or liver diseases.
