Benefits of Apnicaf Oral Solution

Apnea of prematurity
Apnea of prematurity is a condition seen in premature babies where they stop breathing for short periods due to their underdeveloped breathing control system. Apnicaf Oral Solution helps reduce the number and length of these breathing pauses, supporting more stable and regular breathing patterns. It improves oxygen levels, reduces the need for breathing support, and helps promote healthier growth and development during the early stages of life.

How Apnicaf Oral Solution works

Apnicaf Oral Solution is a stimulant. It works by blocking the action of certain natural substances (adenosine and phosphodiesterase) leading to stimulation of the brain and respiratory system in premature newborns. This reduces the number of episodes of interrupted breathing and helps the newborns breathe on their own.
