Cogvgard Inhaler

Cogvgard Inhaler is a tiotropium inhaler used for long-term maintenance treatment of asthma in people who need an add-on controller medicine. Each Cogvgard Inhaler contains the labeled strength of tiotropium in inhalation form, delivered through a handheld inhaler device made by AAR ESS Remedies Pvt. Ltd. Tiotropium is a long-acting anticholinergic bronchodilator that helps keep the airways open and reduce asthma symptoms over time. It is not a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems.

How it works: Tiotropium blocks muscarinic receptors in the airways, which helps relax the muscles around the breathing tubes and keeps them from tightening as easily. In the inhaler form, the medicine goes directly into the lungs, where it can help improve airflow with regular use.

Cogvgard Inhaler comes as a single labeled inhaler strength, so there are no lower or higher sibling strengths in this brand lineup to compare it with. Because it is an inhaled tiotropium maintenance product, a clinician may choose it for people who need once-daily controller treatment rather than quick symptom relief. Its effect is meant to build into steady airway support, not to work like a fast-acting reliever.

• Maintenance treatment of asthma
• Add-on controller therapy
• Help reduce wheezing
• Help reduce shortness of breath from asthma
• Long-term airway bronchodilation

• Use Cogvgard Inhaler exactly as prescribed by your doctor; it is not for sudden asthma attacks.
• Inhale the medicine through the device as directed, and do not swallow it or use it like a tablet.
• Take it at the same time each day if your prescriber has told you to use it once daily.
• Do not use extra puffs or extra inhalers to treat breakthrough symptoms unless your doctor has specifically instructed you to do so.
• If you also use a quick-relief inhaler, keep using it for sudden symptoms as directed by your clinician.
• Follow the device-specific instructions that come with Cogvgard Inhaler so you get the full dose from the inhaler properly.

Cogvgard Inhaler provides the labeled tiotropium dose in each inhaler, and the exact amount per inhalation should be used only as prescribed. Tiotropium inhalers are usually taken once daily, and the maximum daily dose is one prescribed daily dose unless your doctor gives different instructions.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Tiotropium may include:

• Dry mouth
• Sore throat
• Cough
• Hoarseness
• Constipation
• Headache
• Mild dizziness

• Cogvgard Inhaler is for maintenance use and should not replace a rescue inhaler for sudden asthma symptoms.
• Use extra caution if you have glaucoma, especially narrow-angle glaucoma, because tiotropium can affect the eyes if it gets into them.
• Tell your doctor if you have trouble urinating, an enlarged prostate, or bladder outlet problems.
• Use caution if you have heart disease, a history of rapid heartbeat, or rhythm problems.
• If the inhaler causes eye pain or blurred vision, get medical help quickly and avoid getting the powder or spray into your eyes.
• Do not change the dose or frequency on your own, especially with this labeled strength, because too much tiotropium can increase side effects.
• Let your prescriber know about all inhaled medicines you use so your asthma plan stays coordinated.

• Other anticholinergic medicines, which can increase dry mouth, constipation, and urinary problems
• Other inhaled bronchodilators or asthma medicines, which may need to be coordinated by your doctor
• Medicines that can worsen urinary retention, such as some antihistamines or bladder medicines
• Medications that can affect heart rhythm, if you have underlying cardiac disease
