Striverdi Respimat is a highly effective medicine for those suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema. With regular dosage, Striverdi Respimat can control frequent flare-ups and the troublesome symptoms of COPD conditions such as breathlessness, wheezing, and coughing. This medication relaxes the muscles of the airways to the lungs to allow easy airflow.
Striverdi Respimat is an inhaler that administers the medication through the lungs. It contains the active ingredient Olodaterol. Olodaterol is a bronchodilator medication, also known as a long-acting beta 2 agonist. It relaxes the muscles of the airways preventing their narrowing or constriction to allow the patient to breathe freely.
The effects of Olodaterol last for up to 24 hours. Olodaterol is not the same as short-acting beta-2 agonists such as Salbutamol or Terbutaline. Striverdi Respimat is most effective when used regularly for a long time.
Striverdi Respimat is a prescription-only medication. Follow the dosage as prescribed by your doctor or pharmacist. Your doctor will assess your chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms to recommend the required amount of medicine.
Usually, the recommended dose of Striverdi Respimat is two inhalations once a day. One puff or inhalation of Striverdi Respimat contains 2.5 micrograms of Olodaterol.
