Brodil Levo Tablet contains Levosalbutamol 2 mg, a selective beta-2 adrenergic bronchodilator used to manage and relieve symptoms of respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Levosalbutamol is the active levo-isomer of salbutamol, offering targeted bronchodilation with potentially fewer side effects compared to racemic salbutamol. The oral tablet formulation provides convenient dosing for adults and older children who require systemic bronchodilator therapy.
