Duova Rotacaps 18/12mcg is a prescription medication used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is a common lung disorder that gives rise to restricted airflow and breathing problems. It occurs due to the swelling of the airways that carry air in and out of the lungs. It is also known as emphysema or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes chronic bronchitis. The medications provide long-term relief by improving airflow to the lungs and preventing associated symptoms, such as shortness of breath. It reduces the frequency of COPD flare-ups, thereby improving lung function and exercise tolerance.
Duova Rotacaps combines two medications: Formoterol 12mcg and Tiotropium bromide 18mcg, which work together to help relax the muscles of the air passages and make it easier to breathe. This way, the combination medicine relieves symptoms such as coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. For the medication to work properly, avoid smoking and minimise exposure to pollution, fumes, and dust.
Additionally, daily exercise can help you maintain your strength. You can discuss with your healthcare provider about how much exercise is good for you. The information given in this information guide is based on the active component of the medication. The uses and effects of the medication may vary from person to person. Therefore, it is always advisable to consult a healthcare specialist before using the medicine.

How to use Duova Rotacaps 18/12mcg?
Usage instructions for Formoterol and Tiotropium bromide medicine
Duova Rotacaps 18/12mcg must not be swallowed. Carefully go through the doctor’s prescription before use. Your doctor will instruct you on how often to use Duova Rotacap. In general, the effect of the medicine is usually seen after a few days, but it will only reach its maximum capacity after a few weeks. The medication must be used regularly to be effective, so take it even if you have no symptoms. If you discontinue treatment, you may experience worsening of symptoms. Continue to use the medicine even if you feel well for as long as the doctor has prescribed it.
To achieve optimal results, ensure you are using the inhaler correctly; otherwise, it may not work effectively. Rotacap is a capsule that should be placed at the base of the Rotahaler and not in the mouthpiece. Twist the mouthpiece completely until you hear a click sound, and then breathe in deeply through the mouthpiece. Hold your breath for up to a few seconds or as long as you can. If you think some powder is still in the rotahaler, repeat the process. Avoid missing any dose. If you miss a dose, forget the missed dose. Be sure to follow the regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.
