Indacaterol Maleate Hemihydrate and Glycopyrronium Bromide (Glycopyrrolate IP) powder for inhalation, branded as GLYCOPRESS INDUS, is a cutting-edge medication for managing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This combination inhaler leverages the synergistic effects of Indacaterol, a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA), and Glycopyrronium, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), to provide comprehensive respiratory relief.

How Does It Work?

Indacaterol Maleate Hemihydrate

• Long-acting Beta2-Agonist (LABA): Indacaterol relaxes the smooth muscles around the airways, enhancing airflow and facilitating easier breathing.
• Rapid and Sustained Action: Provides quick relief from bronchospasm and maintains bronchodilation for up to 24 hours.

Glycopyrronium Bromide

• Long-acting Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA): Glycopyrronium blocks the muscarinic receptors in the airways, preventing bronchoconstriction and reducing mucus production.
• Prolonged Effect: Its action lasts for 24 hours, making it effective for once-daily dosing.

Uses of GLYCOPRESS INDUS

• COPD Management: Effectively controls symptoms of COPD, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
• Improvement in Lung Function: Enhances overall lung function and respiratory capacity.
• Reduction of Exacerbations: Helps in reducing the frequency of COPD exacerbations.
