Purisal Syrup 100ml

Indications

Fast-acting bronchodilators, also known as “relievers,” are a class of medications that includes Purisal. It treats the coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath that are signs of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Because Purisal inhalers provide prompt relief from breathing issues when you need them, they are known as “reliever” inhalers.

Pharmacology

Levosalbutamol is a beta 2-agonist with a single isomer that differs from racemic salbutamol by the absence of (S)-salbutamol. Levosalbutamol is an efficient bronchodilator, and (S)-salbutamol has no influence on its principal mode of action. When compared to racemic salbutamol, clinically equivalent bronchodilation can be achieved at dosages that reduce beta-mediated adverse effects significantly.
