About Nintib 100 Capsule
Nintib 100 Capsule is primarily used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in adults. IPF is an irreversible disease marked by a progressive decline in lung function. The tissues in the lungs become swollen and scarred over time, which makes it difficult to breathe deeply.
Nintib 100 Capsule contains nintedanib, which helps reduce the scarring and swelling in the lungs by decreasing the release of naturally occurring growth factors in the body, allowing you to breathe better.
In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as nausea, tiredness, diarrhoea, indigestion, loss of appetite, headache, and photosensitivity. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
