The reliever inhaler that gets to work on symptoms quickly.

Bricanyl is a reliever inhaler that works quickly in the body to tackle asthma symptoms. It’s sometimes used to treat bronchitis and emphysema too.
We’re here to help you find the right asthma medication for you. Take a few moments to tell us about your health, order Bricanyl online and get it delivered to your door.
Bricanyl (or Terbutaline as it’s sometimes known) is a reliever inhaler that’s used to treat symptoms of asthma and other lung problems. It may also be suitable for patients who have COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), bronchitis and emphysema.
It’s a bronchodilator, which just means it’s an inhaler that widens the airways when you’re struggling to breathe properly.
Bricanyl stops wheezing, coughing, and breathing difficulties by relaxing the muscles in the airways. It causes the airways to expand, and allows air to get into your lungs more freely. Bricanyl has been proven extremely effective in treating asthma and related illnesses. It starts to work in minutes, and lasts for up to six hours.
You only use reliever inhalers like Bricanyl when you experience asthma symptoms, or if you have an asthma attack.

When you use Bricanyl Turbohaler, it’s really important to read the instructions you get with it. Using ‘correct inhaler technique’ will help the medication to work at its best. If you haven’t been shown this, let us know.
To get your Bricanyl Turbohaler ready:
To use Bricanyl:
Usually, one 0.5mg dose when you get breathless (so one puff of the inhaler) up to four times a day. But the dose can vary depending on your health. We can chat to you about the right dose for you during your consultation with us. If you find that the dose isn’t working the way that it should for you, send our clinician a message. We can adjust your dose or explore other treatments with you.
No. Bricanyl isn’t available over the counter. It’s a prescription medicine only, so you’ll need to have a consultation with a clinician in the first instance so that they can decide if it’s suitable (and safe) for you to use.
Bricanyl can have side effects including headache, feeling shaky and muscle cramps. So a clinician will need to take these sort of factors into consideration before prescribing you Bricanyl.
