Asthma symptoms can be managed and lung function can be improved with the use of the drug combination formoterol budesonide.
It is prescribed when a patient’s asthma cannot be adequately controlled by other asthma medications or when the patient’s condition is so severe that multiple medications must be taken daily. Taking this medication after an asthma attack has already begun will not help.
Additionally, the administration of this medication prevents the progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and treats airflow obstruction (COPD). This includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
Budesonide for inhalation is a member of the corticosteroid drug class (cortisone-like medicines). It functions by reducing the inflammation (swelling) that leads to an asthma attack in the lungs.
Formoterol is a member of the bronchodilator drug class and is inhaled. It functions by assisting the muscles surrounding your lungs’ airways to maintain their relaxed state, thereby preventing asthma symptoms like wheezing and shortness of breath. As a result, the bronchial tubes may move more air.
This medication is taken via oral inhalation. Shake vigorously before use. After using, rinse your mouth with water. Be careful not to ingest the water. Follow the dosage instructions on the medicine package.
Don’t use it more frequently than recommended. Up until your doctor instructs you to stop, keep taking it. Store between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius at room temperature (68 and 77 degrees F).
Keep your inhaler out of the heat, the cold, and the humidity. This medication burns easily. Refrain from being around heat, fire, flame, and smoking. When the dose counter reaches “0” or three months have passed since you removed it from the foil bag, whichever comes first, throw it away.
