Available at Pharmaegy Pharmacy. Use as directed by your doctor.

Intro: Aironyl is a fast-acting bronchodilator manufactured by SEDICO. It contains Terbutaline Sulphate, a medicine that belongs to the group of "Beta-2 agonists." It works by directly relaxing the smooth muscles of the airways (bronchi), making it significantly easier to breathe during an asthma attack or a bout of severe coughing. Indications: Asthma Relief: Treats and prevents wheezing and shortness of breath associated with asthma. Bronchitis & Emphysema: Relieves airway obstruction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Respiratory Allergies: Opens the airways during severe allergic reactions that affect breathing. Coughing with Wheezing: Specifically used when a cough is accompanied by a "tight" chest or whistling sound. How to Use: Dosage (Weight-based): The dose for children is usually 0.05 mg/kg to 0.075 mg/kg of body weight, three times daily. Example (20kg child): Approximately 5ml, 3 times daily. Adults: Typically 10ml to 15ml, 2–3 times daily. Timing: Can be taken with or without food, but taking it on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal) may speed up absorption. Crucial Rules: Heart Warning: Use with extreme caution if the patient has a history of heart disease, irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), or high blood pressure, as it can increase the heart rate. Side Effects: Common reactions include hand tremors, nervousness, headache, or a racing heart. These usually decrease as the body adjusts to the medicine. Diabetes: May cause a slight rise in blood sugar; diabetic patients should monitor their levels closely. Potassium Levels: Long-term or high-dose use can lower potassium levels in the blood.
