CompositionFormonide 0.5mg Respules is used for the long-term management and prevention of symptoms in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in adults. Budesonide reduces airway inflammation while formoterol provides sustained bronchodilation, together preventing wheeze, breathlessness, and flare-ups.
It contains budesonide 0.5mg and formoterol in single-dose vials for nebulisation. Use as prescribed through a compatible nebuliser. Rinse your mouth with water and spit after each session to reduce oral thrush risk. It is a maintenance medicine and is not for acute breathlessness attacks.
Correct nebuliser technique, consistent daily use, attending all respiratory review appointments, and keeping a short-acting reliever available for sudden breathlessness support management alongside this medicine.
Before using this medicine, tell your doctor about any tuberculosis, high blood pressure, thyroid problems, glaucoma, or other medicines. Speak to your doctor before use if pregnant or breastfeeding.
