About Levolin-1 Tablet

Levolin-1 Tablet is used to treat symptoms of bronchospasm, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Levolin-1 Tablet helps relieve symptoms like coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. Bronchospasm is the tightening of the muscles that line the airways or bronchi in the lungs. Asthma is a breathing problem 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 the bronchial tubes).

Levolin-1 Tablet contains Levosalbutamol, which is also known as levalbuterol. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles in the airways and increases airflow to the lungs. Levolin-1 Tablet thus makes breathing easier by widening the airways.

Your doctor will advise on how often you need to take Levolin-1 Tablet based on your medical condition. The common side effects of Levolin-1 Tablet include nausea, vomiting, heartburn, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, tremors (shakiness), headache, muscle cramps, nervousness, dizziness, sleepiness, palpitations (irregular heartbeat), and fatigue. Most of these side effects of Levolin-1 Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please seek medical help.

Brief your medical history to the doctor if you have any heart, liver, or kidney diseases, hypokalaemia (low blood potassium levels), hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), seizure (fits), high blood pressure and diabetes before taking Levolin-1 Tablet . Please check with your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any other prescribed or non-prescribed medicines. Avoid driving or operating machines since Levolin-1 Tablet may cause dizziness and drowsiness. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Levolin-1 Tablet as it can worsen your sleepiness.
