Glycogate F Inhaler 120 MDI is 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).

Glycogate F Inhaler 120 MDI is a combination of Formoterol fumarate and Glycopyrronium. Formoterol fumarate prevents airway muscle contraction, making it easier for air to enter and exit the lungs. Glycopyrronium decreases the secretions in the airways.

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. However, talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
