About Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule

Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule is indicated as a maintenance treatment of asthma in adults. Asthma is a long-term lung disease where the muscles around the smaller airways become tight (bronchoconstriction) and inflamed, leading to difficulty in breathing.

Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule is a combination of three drugs: Glycopyrronium Bromide and Indacaterol (bronchodilators), and Mometasone Furoate (corticosteroids). Glycopyrronium Bromide and Indacaterol relax the muscles of the small airways in the lungs, which helps open the airways and makes it easier for air to get in and out. Mometasone Furoate reduces the inflammation (swelling and irritation) in the small airways in the lungs. This gradually eases breathing problems and also helps to prevent asthma attacks.

Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule is for inhalation only. Do not swallow Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule . Use Indamet-G Powder For Inhalation Capsule as prescribed by your doctor.
