📋Overview
Spiriva is a medication commonly used to help manage chronic respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and sometimes asthma. It works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, making it easier to breathe. Spiriva is often prescribed to reduce symptoms like shortness of breath and to help prevent flare-ups of lung disease. It is typically used as part of long-term maintenance therapy for individuals with ongoing breathing difficulties.
