About Forglyn Forte Respicaps

Forglyn Forte Respicaps used for long-term, maintenance treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the bronchial tube lining). In COPD, the muscles around the airways tighten, making it difficult to breathe.

Forglyn Forte Respicaps is a combination of two medicines, namely: Formoterol fumarate (long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist) and Glycopyrronium (anti-cholinergic). Formoterol fumarate prevents tightening of the muscles in the airways, making it easier for the air to get in and out of the lungs. Glycopyrronium decreases the secretions in the airways. Together, Forglyn Forte Respicaps provides relief from COPD.

You are advised to use Forglyn Forte Respicaps for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as headache, nausea, dry mouth, chest pain, muscle cramps, dizziness, and frequent urination. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Do not stop taking Forglyn Forte Respicaps on your own, as it might cause worsening of symptoms. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Forglyn Forte Respicaps may cause dizziness, so drive with caution. Avoid consuming alcohol as it might cause increased dizziness. Forglyn Forte Respicaps is not recommended for children below 18 years, as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and the medicines you are taking to avoid unpleasant side effects.
