Description:
Formoterol + Budesonide Inhaler is a combination respiratory medication used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains two active ingredients: Formoterol, a long-acting bronchodilator, and Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid. This combination therapy works by relaxing airway muscles and reducing inflammation, thereby improving airflow, relieving symptoms, and preventing respiratory flare-ups.
Mechanism of Action:
Formoterol is a long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA) that relaxes the smooth muscles in the bronchial tubes, helping to widen the airways and ease breathing.
Budesonide is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by inhibiting the release of inflammatory chemical messengers in the airways.
Together, these medicines improve breathing efficiency and provide both immediate and sustained symptom control.
Therapeutic Uses:
Maintenance treatment of asthma
Management of COPD, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema
Reduction in the frequency and severity of respiratory symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath
Dosage Form:
Inhaler (available as Metered-Dose Inhaler or Dry Powder Inhaler)
Prescription Status:
Prescription-only medication
Note:
This medication is intended for regular, long-term use, not for acute relief of asthma attacks. Patients should use it under medical supervision and rinse the mouth after inhalation to prevent oral thrush.
