Spiriva (Tiotropium)

Chemical Name: TIOTROPIUM (tye-oh-TROE-pee-um)

Spiriva is an inhaler medication used to manage asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis and emphysema. This bronchodilator is prescribed for daily use to relax airway muscles in order to prevent bronchospasms and reduce the flare-up of respiratory issues. Treatment effectiveness is dependent on regular use to prevent asthma attacks in adults and children over 6 years old. Spiriva is not a fast-acting inhaler medication and should not be used in the event of an asthma attack. If sudden shortness of breath or wheezing occurs, use an emergency quick-relief inhaler as prescribed by your doctor. You can buy Spiriva Illinois in both brand and generic versions.

GGeneric Spiriva – Tiotropium

Tiotropium is the generic version of Spiriva available in Illinois with the same level of efficacy as the name brand inhaler. You can purchase Tiotropium with a Spiriva prescription, but consult with your doctor before doing so. The same medication guidelines apply to both Spiriva and its generic counterpart. Tiotropium is also subject to the same potential side effects as Spiriva. Only buy generic Tiotropium from reputable pharmaceutical sources and with a valid prescription.

Directions

Use Spiriva as directed by your doctor, and do not halt course of treatment unless otherwise ordered by your physician.

The capsule powder is for oral inhalation use only and may cause irritation and blurred vision if it accidently touches your eyes.
