What is Duoneb

IpratropiumThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryIpratropium is a medication used to prevent airway muscles from tightening. It is usually inhaled and has very little absorption into the bloodstream. Ipratropium was developed by Boehringer Ingelheim and was first approved by the FDA in 1986. A combination of Ipratropium and albuterol was approved in 1996.

Effectiveness

How Duoneb Affects PatientsIpratropium is a short-acting medication that helps to relax the breathing tubes in the lungs, relieving symptoms like wheezing, chest tightness, and coughing. It usually takes 1-2 hours for the drug to take effect, and its effects last 4-6 hours. Studies have found that ipratropium can help to improve breathing in those with asthma attacks, but it has not been proven to be beneficial for long-term use or for preventing asthma attacks.
How Duoneb works in the bodyIpratropium works by blocking the effects of the parasympathetic nervous system on the airways. This system normally causes airways to become narrower due to muscle contractions, but when Ipratropium blocks it, airways can stay relaxed and wide. This also decreases the production of bronchial secretions. On a cellular level, Ipratropium blocks acetylcholine from binding to muscle cells, which prevents them from contracting and allowing airways to remain relaxed.

When to interrupt dosage

The dosage of Duoneb is contingent upon the diagnosed condition, such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Asthma and Non-Allergic Rhinitis. The measure of dosage is contingent upon the mode of delivery outlined in the table hereunder.

Duoneb Reviews: What are patients saying about Duoneb?

5Patient Review

Duoneb for Bronchi Muscle Spasm resulting from COPD
I appreciate the convenience of this treatment, but unfortunately it gives me really bad muscle spasms that are incredibly painful. I'll be bringing it up with my doctor next week.

8/2/2012
Duoneb for Bronchi Muscle Spasm resulting from COPD
I had at least four exacerbations before being prescribed DuoNeb. My breathing problems were due to pneumonia, so I can't really say how these other patients have recovered. You can't believe all that they write, because everyone responds differently yo various types of medications. If a drug works for you, use it. If not try something else.

Duoneb for Bronchi Muscle Spasm resulting from COPD
It relieved my breathing restrictions without making my heart beat too fast or making me nervous.

Duoneb for Bronchi Muscle Spasm resulting from COPD
I rapidly developed a fever, headache, and trembling after taking this medication. My heart rate also increased significantly.

Duoneb for Bronchi Muscle Spasm resulting from COPD
I've been on DuoNeb since 2018 and it's really helped me a lot. Not only does it help me to get sputum up, but it also improves wheezing significantly. Plus, I don't have to worry about raising my heart rate or getting palpitations like I do with my stand alone Albuterol solution. The only downside is the frequency of doses.

Duoneb for Bronchi Muscle Spasm resulting from COPD
I was given this medicine during a bad asthma flare to see if it would work better than albuterol alone. The first few doses worked great, although I lost my voice. The last two doses actually made me worse. The first of these I took during an attack, and got much worse, chest was very tight, and wheezing increased. The second dose I took when feeling fine to see what would happen, and within 1 minute, I was having an asthma attack.

While Albuterol did help with my A fib at first, after awhile it started to make my heart race uncontrollably. I had to stop taking it and ended up getting a pacemaker.

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What is DuoNeb solution used for?

"What is DuoNeb used for? DuoNeb is used to help treat airway narrowing (bronchospasm) that happens with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is for adult patients who need to use more than one bronchodilator medicine. The active ingredients are albuterol sulfate and ipratropium bromide."

Answered by AI

What type of bronchodilator is DuoNeb?

"DuoNeb is a bronchodilator that is a combination of albuterol and ipratropium. This medication relaxes the muscles in the airway and increases air flow to the lungs to help with breathing."

Answered by AI

What is the difference between DuoNeb and albuterol?

"Duoneb (ipratropium / albuterol) is a combination of ipratropium, a short-acting muscarinic antagonist, and albuterol, a short-acting beta-agonist, that help you breathe."

Answered by AI

What is DuoNeb breathing treatment?

"DuoNeb is a combination of two bronchodilators, ipratropium bromide and albuterol sulfate, used to treat and prevent the symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including bronchitis and emphysema."
