FRANOL TABLETS


What the Product Is

Franol is a combination bronchodilator used to manage chronic respiratory conditions. It contains two active ingredients that work together to open the airways in the lungs, making it easier to breathe. It is a traditional and effective treatment for individuals who suffer from persistent chest tightness and wheezing.


What it Treats

This product is primarily indicated for the symptomatic relief of breathing difficulties. It is used for:

  • Bronchial Asthma: Helps manage chronic asthma by keeping the airways open.

  • Bronchitis: Relieves the airway constriction associated with chronic inflammation of the bronchial tubes.

  • Emphysema: Aids in easing the breathing effort for those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).


How it Works

Franol utilizes a dual-action formula:

  1. Theophylline: A bronchodilator that relaxes the smooth muscles in the bronchial tubes and reduces the lungs' response to irritants.

  2. Ephedrine Hydrochloride: A decongestant and bronchodilator that helps reduce swelling in the mucous membranes and further opens the air passages.


Dosage (Standard Recommendations)

  • Adults: Usually one tablet taken three times daily.

  • Night-time Relief: An extra dose may be taken at bedtime if nocturnal wheezing is a significant problem.

  • Note: Dosage must be strictly followed. Theophylline levels in the blood must stay within a specific range to be both effective and safe.


How to Use

To ensure the best results:

  1. Consistency: Take the tablets at regular intervals to maintain steady levels of the medication in your bloodstream.

  2. With Water: Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.

  3. Monitor Caffeine: Limit intake of caffeine (coffee, tea, cola), as caffeine can increase the side effects of Theophylline, such as heart palpitations or jitters.


Who it's Suitable For

  • Indicated For: Adults requiring maintenance therapy for chronic obstructive airway diseases.

  • Precautions: Not recommended for children unless specifically prescribed by a specialist.

  • Medical Consultation: Consult our pharmacist if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, thyroid problems, or glaucoma, as the Ephedrine component can affect these conditions.


FAQ

Q: Can I use Franol for a sudden, severe asthma attack?

A: No. Franol is a maintenance medication. In the event of an acute, sudden attack, you must use a "rescue" inhaler (like Ventolin/Salbutamol) for immediate relief.

Q: Will it keep me awake?

A: Ephedrine is a stimulant and may cause insomnia or restlessness in some users, especially if taken late in the evening.

Q: Can I take this with other cold medicines?

A: You should avoid taking Franol with other medicines containing decongestants (like many flu syrups), as this can lead to an unsafe increase in heart rate and blood pressure.
