Tobi Podhaler Capsules (active ingredient: tobramycin) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Cystic Fibrosis: Tobi Podhaler is used to manage and treat chronic pulmonary infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in patients with cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder that affects the lungs and digestive system.
  2. Prevention of Respiratory Infections: It helps in preventing respiratory infections and exacerbations associated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa in patients with cystic fibrosis.

Tobi Podhaler belongs to a class of drugs known as aminoglycoside antibiotics, which work by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby stopping the growth of bacteria responsible for lung infections.
