Uses of Theo Asthalin Tablet
Theo Asthalin pills have received many positive reviews in treating the following medical conditions:
Asthma
When you have Asthma, your airways constrict, making breathing hard. Theo-Asthalin relaxes your airway muscles, helping you breathe more easily.
It also helps alleviate other symptoms like chest pain, difficulty breathing, wheezing and coughing.
COPD
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) encompasses a collection of progressive lung diseases such as Emphysema and Chronic bronchitis (inflammation of bronchial tubes).
Initially, the condition may not be severe, but as it progresses, it can lead to a complete blockage of the airways, causing harm to the lungs.
The Theo Asthalin Tablet operates by soothing the muscles in the airways, thereby expanding them to facilitate easier breathing.
