Glenmark Pharmaceuticals has launched Nebzmart GFB Smartules and Glenmark Airz FB Smartules, the world’s first nebulized, fixed-dose triple therapy for the treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Both products combine three proven medicines - Glycopyrronium, Formoterol, and Budesonide - to reduce airway obstruction, inflammation, and improve lung function and symptom control. As a single, easy-to-use nebulized therapy, it minimizes the burden of multiple medications. This marks a breakthrough as a new standard of care for COPD patients, especially those who struggle with using Metered Dose Inhalers (MDI) or Dry Powder Inhalers (DPI).
In a clinical study conducted in India, this nebulized triple therapy demonstrated rapid improvement in lung function and better control of breathlessness (dyspnea) among patients. The treatment was well tolerated and demonstrated a good safety profile, offering patients a simpler and more effective way to manage COPD.
Glenmark Pharmaceuticals is a global research-led pharmaceutical company with presence across Generics, Specialty and OTC business with operations in over 50 countries.
