During conditions like asthma or COPD, the airways become narrowed which causes shortness of breath, chest tightening or wheezing.
Bricanyl helps provide immediate relief during an acute asthma or wheezing attack. It expands the airways which have become constricted and thus makes it easier to breathe.
