Seebri Breezhaler is used to improve breathing problems caused by COPD such as wheezing, coughing and shortness of breath. It reduces your symptoms over the long term. Seebri works by opening air passages in the lungs making breathing easier. Seebri must be used every day. It is a long-acting bronchodilator, which means that it works throughout the day. Seebri is available as inhalation capsules to be used with the Breezhaler inhaler device called Seebri Breezhaler.
Seebri contains glycopyrronium powder in a capsule form, which is for inhalation using the Breezhaler only. The powder from the capsule is breathed into your lungs using the Breezhaler device provided. Do not swallow the capsules – they must be used by inhaling the contents of the capsule with the Breezhaler. Using an inhaler device enables the medicine to go straight into your airways when you breathe in. This means that your airways and lungs are treated, but very little of the medicine gets into the rest of your body.
Seebri does not give immediate relief from wheezing, tight chest and shortness of breath |
If you need quick relief from these symptoms, use your ‘reliever’ medicine such as salbutamol or terbutaline. |
