Frequently asked Questions about Brace

Question about 5 years ago

How does Brace work?

Dr. Chirag Bhingradiya MBBS , Pediatrics

Brace contains acebrophylline which works by causing widening of bronchial smooth muscles present in the lungs which get tightened causing a constriction. Due to the constriction, the air cannot pass in and out of your lungs, and the relaxation of these bronchial muscles results in dilation of the airways. It also suppresses the body's normal response to stimuli (asthamatic trigger) that causes bronchoconstriction. In this way Brace helps in managing the symptoms of asthma and COPD.
