Description:
Foracort 100 Rotacap is a combination inhalation therapy used in the maintenance treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains two active ingredients: Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, and Formoterol Fumarate, a long-acting bronchodilator. This dual-action formulation helps to reduce inflammation and relax the airway muscles, thereby relieving long-term respiratory symptoms and making breathing easier.
Therapeutic Uses:
Long-term control and prevention of asthma symptoms
Maintenance treatment of COPD, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema
Prevention of asthma attacks and reduction of exacerbations in COPD
Mechanism of Action:
Budesonide reduces inflammation in the airways by inhibiting inflammatory mediators and decreasing airway swelling.
Formoterol Fumarate acts on beta-2 receptors in the airway smooth muscle to provide sustained bronchodilation and ease of breathing.
Dosage Form:
Rotacaps (for inhalation via a Rotahaler device)
Strength:
Each Rotacap contains Budesonide 100 mcg + Formoterol Fumarate 6 mcg
Prescription Status:
Prescription-only medication
Note:
Foracort 100 Rotacap is intended for regular use as maintenance therapy and is not suitable for immediate relief of acute asthma attacks. A separate rescue inhaler should be used for sudden symptoms. Proper inhalation technique and rinsing the mouth after use are essential to minimize side effects.
