CompositionBUDETROL 0.5MG 2ML PACK OF 5 RESPULES is a medicine used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It helps control airway inflammation, prevent flare-ups, and ease symptoms such as wheezing, breathlessness, and a chronic cough.
It contains budesonide and formoterol, which belong to groups of medicines called corticosteroids and long-acting bronchodilators. Budesonide reduces swelling in the airways, while formoterol relaxes the airway muscles to keep them open. The liquid is breathed in using a nebuliser as directed by your doctor, and it is used regularly rather than for sudden relief.
Some general measures can help alongside this medicine. These include quitting smoking, having any recommended vaccinations, and following any breathing plan your doctor has given you.
Before using this medicine, tell your doctor about any heart problems, diabetes, or other medicines you take. Rinse your mouth after each use to prevent throat irritation and mouth infections. Your doctor may monitor your bone health or eyes with long-term use, and you should tell your doctor if your breathing suddenly worsens. Use it regularly as prescribed, and tell your doctor if you need your reliever inhaler more often than usual.
