Daxas 500mcg Tablet 30s (Box)

Daxas 500mcg Tablet belongs to a drug class known as phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitors, and its active ingredient is roflumilast 500 micrograms, a non-steroid anti-inflammatory medicine. If your doctor has prescribed this for you, it helps to know that some of the most commonly reported effects include diarrhea, nausea, headache, and unintentional weight loss, particularly during the first weeks of treatment. This is a prescription-only medicine intended for long-term maintenance use rather than immediate relief, so it should never be used to treat a sudden breathing flare-up or asthma attack. Many people find it reassuring that Daxas works differently from inhaled medicines — it's taken as a tablet and targets inflammation throughout the body and lungs rather than opening the airways directly, which is why it's typically used alongside, not instead of, other prescribed inhalers. As always, keep your doctor informed of your weight, mood, and any liver conditions, as these are monitored regularly while on this medicine.

The usual maintenance dose is one 500 microgram tablet taken once daily, generally after an initial 28-day course of the 250 microgram starting dose to help reduce early side effects. This medicine should be taken consistently every day, as its effects build up gradually over time rather than providing immediate relief.

• Headache

• Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and humidity
• Keep tablets in their original packaging until ready to use
• Keep out of reach of children at all times
• Let your doctor know promptly if you notice unexplained weight loss or changes in mood
• Never stop or adjust your dose without first speaking to your doctor

Daxas 500mcg Tablet is taken by mouth, once daily, and should be swallowed whole with water at around the same time each day, with or without food. Many doctors start treatment with a lower 250 microgram dose for the first 28 days before moving to the full 500 microgram dose, so always follow your doctor's specific instructions on timing and dose progression.

Daxas 500mcg Tablet generally remains stable until the expiry date printed on the blister strip and outer carton when stored correctly and unopened. Always check this date before use and avoid taking any tablet past its expiry.

Each Daxas tablet contains Roflumilast 500 micrograms as the active ingredient, a selective phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor that works by reducing inflammation associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
