How To Get Your Spiriva Discount

Spiriva treats patients with asthma. It prevents the symptoms of bronchospasm caused by emphysema, chronic bronchitis, or COPD. COPD, or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is a lung disease that is very serious and causes breathing to get worse over time. The company that manufactures Spiriva is Boehringer Ingelheim and it is in the drug class Anticholinergic. A Spiriva discount is available through our patient assistance programs.

If you are allergic to tiotropium, ipratropium, atronpine, or any similar drugs then Spirivia is not for you. This inhaler is not used as a rescue medicine. It cannot be used to treat sudden breathing problems, but rather prevent them in the future.

History of Spiriva

Spiriva was first approved by the FDA in January 2004. Tiotropium bromide capsules for inhalation are co-promoted by Boehringer-Ingelheim and Pfizer under the trade name Spiriva. It is also manufactured and marketed by Cipla under trade name Tiova.

There are three types of inhalers.

• Respimat for asthma
• Respimat for COPD
• Handihaler for COPD

These inhalers are for long-term treatment of asthma or COPD for those that are over the age of 12 years old.

The usual dose that is prescribed by the doctor is two inhalations through the mouth once daily. Without any allergic reactions, the inhaler is safe and effects with easy priming directions.

The Handihaler is capsules in packages that require a special inhaler. The capsules get loaded into the device, the medicine then gets released into the inhaler chamber. One capsule will allow two inhalations.

Other Statistics About Spiriva

Spiriva can help with many different things, such as:

• Reduce your risk of COPD flare-ups
• You breathe easier by opening airways and keeping them open for 24 hours
• Improve lung function by opening airways
• Control symptoms of COPD

Using Spiriva for asthma will help patients breathe better. This can be used in addition to daily maintenance medication that is not 100% working to help solve asthma symptoms.

As a safety feature, the inhaler will lock after 30 doses and cannot be used. There is an indicator on the inhaler that shows how many puffs are left.
