Bamifix Tablet Uses

About Bamifix Tablet

Bamifix Tablet uses include treatment of bronchial asthma and other lung conditions in which the airways tighten and narrow. It contains bamifylline, a xanthine medicine similar to theophylline that relaxes the tight muscles of the airways so air can flow more easily.
