What it is and what it is used for

for

What Ultibro Breezhaler is This medicine contains two active substances called indacaterol and glycopyrronium. These belong to a group of medicines called bronchodilators. What Ultibro Breezhaler is used for This medicine is used to make breathing easier for adult patients who have breathing difficulties due to a lung disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In COPD the muscles around the airways tighten. This makes breathing difficult. This medicine blocks the tightening of these muscles in the lungs, making it easier for air to get in and out of the lungs. If you use this medicine once a day, it will help to reduce the effects of COPD on your everyday life. 2.
