Get a Atrovent (ipratropium) prescription online for symptoms of lung disease

Atrovent is a brand-name prescription medication used to control the symptoms of various lung diseases. While it does not cure these conditions, a bronchodilator such as Atrovent helps patients with lung conditions prevent uncomfortable symptoms such as wheezing and coughing. Atrovent is also prescribed to treat air flow blockage and symptoms caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Atrovent is supplied as an oral inhalant administered through an inhaler or a liquid to inhale through a nebulizer. It contains the bronchodilator drug ipratropium, which is available in generic form. Atrovent is only available via prescription from a licensed health care provider.

Doctors prescribe Atrovent to help patients control the symptoms of various lung diseases such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition that narrows and irritates the lungs' airways. Asthma is a prevalent but non-contagious respiratory disease that usually begins in childhood and continues into adulthood. Asthma may vary in severity from person to person.

Common symptoms of asthma include:

• Chest tightness
  
• Shortness of breath
  
• Difficulty breathing
  
• Coughing
  
• Wheezing
  
  

Chronic bronchitis is long-term inflammation of the bronchioles and is characterized by productive coughing that occurs over several months. Chronic bronchitis may be caused by smoking tobacco products, air pollution, or allergens and may lead to COPD.

Common symptoms of bronchitis include:

• Coughing
  
• Wheezing
  
• Shortness of breath
  
• Low-grade fever
  
• Mucus production (usually yellowish or green in color)
  
• Chest pain
  
  

Emphysema is a condition that occurs when the air sacs in your lungs have become damaged. This can be caused by smoking, inhaling harmful chemicals, or regular exposure to air pollution. Emphysema is most commonly characterized by chronic shortness of breath that can lead to additional adverse symptoms.

Atrovent belongs to a class of medications known as bronchodilators. These medications help relax the muscles surrounding the airways in the lungs (known as the bronchi) to help prevent lung damage and lung disease symptoms.

Symptoms of these conditions commonly occur after exercise or exposure to an irritant (such as secondhand smoke or airborne allergens). Bronchodilators help people mitigate and prevent the symptoms listed above by relaxing the muscles surrounding the airways and encouraging airflow to and from the lungs. Atrovent does not cure asthma or lung disease patients, but it can improve quality of life and prevent potentially severe breathing problems.

The use of Atrovent may cause side effects. Talk to your health care provider if these adverse reactions do not go away within a few days or become severe.

Common symptoms reported when taking Atrovent include:

• Dry mouth
  
• Difficulty with urination
  
• Frequent need to urinate
  
• Dizziness
  
• Heartburn
  
• Nausea and vomiting
  
  

More severe side effects are rare but are usually the result of an allergy to Atrovent.

Seek medical attention right away if you experience any of the following adverse reactions:

• Tachycardia (fast or irregular heartbeat)
  
• Chest pain
  
• Rash/ hives
  
• Swelling of the face, throat, or extremities
  
• Difficulty breathing
  
• Throat irritation
  
  

As with all prescription medications, inform the prescribing doctor about any medical conditions you have been diagnosed with and any medications or supplements you currently take before starting treatment with Atrovent. Atrovent can interact with other medicines and substances, causing potentially serious side effects. Inform your health care provider if you have been diagnosed with glaucoma, prostate conditions, or urinary problems. Before beginning treatment with Atrovent, let your doctor know if you are pregnant or are planning on becoming pregnant.

The specific dosage of Atrovent will vary depending on the condition requiring treatment. Talk to your health care provider about administering Atrovent correctly and how often to inhale the medication.

Do not discontinue or increase your dosage of Atrovent without consulting your doctor first. Take the medication exactly as prescribed, and inform your doctor if you begin to experience any side effects while taking the medication.
