Description:
Budesonide Suspension 1mg for Nebuliser is an inhaled corticosteroid used in the preventive management of asthma and other chronic respiratory conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It helps reduce airway inflammation, control symptoms like wheezing, breathlessness, and chest tightness, and prevent asthma exacerbations when used regularly through a nebuliser.
Therapeutic Uses:
Maintenance treatment of bronchial asthma
Management of COPD and other inflammatory airway diseases
Prevention of asthma symptoms in both adults and children
Mechanism of Action:
Budesonide works by reducing inflammation in the airways. It suppresses the activity of inflammatory cells and mediators, helping to open up the air passages and improve breathing over time.
Dosage Form:
Suspension for nebulisation
Strength:
1 mg per 2 mL unit dose ampoule
Prescription Status:
Prescription-only medication
Note:
Budesonide nebuliser suspension is intended for regular use as a preventive therapy. It is not effective for the immediate relief of acute asthma attacks. Patients should always have a fast-acting bronchodilator (“reliever” inhaler) available for sudden symptoms. The medication should be used under medical supervision, and proper nebulisation technique should be followed.
