Budesonide 100 mcg & 200 mcg Inhaler
Description:
Budesonide Inhaler is a corticosteroid-based inhalation therapy available in 100 mcg and 200 mcg strengths per actuation. It is used for the long-term management and prevention of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Budesonide works by reducing inflammation and swelling in the airways, thereby improving airflow and preventing asthma attacks or COPD exacerbations.
Therapeutic Uses:

Management of COPD to reduce flare-ups and improve lung function
Prevention of respiratory symptoms such as wheezing, breathlessness, and chest tightness
Mechanism of Action:
Budesonide is an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) that acts locally in the lungs to suppress airway inflammation. It inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators and reduces mucosal edema, resulting in improved respiratory function and symptom control.

Metered-Dose Inhaler (MDI)
Strengths Available:
100 mcg per actuation
200 mcg per actuation
Prescription Status:
Prescription-only medication
Note:
Budesonide Inhaler is intended for regular maintenance therapy and is not suitable for acute relief of bronchospasm. Patients should rinse their mouth after use to prevent oral thrush. Always use under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
