Budecort 100 Inhaler — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Budesonide (100mcg)

Budesonide is an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways. It decreases airway hyper-responsiveness and mucus production, helping prevent wheeze, cough and breathlessness. It is not meant for immediate relief of an acute asthma attack.

For inhalation use only via mouth. Use regularly as prescribed, preferably at the same times each day. Shake well before each puff, exhale fully, seal lips around mouthpiece, inhale slowly and deeply while pressing the canister, hold breath ~10 seconds, then exhale; wait 30–60 seconds before a second puff if prescribed. Rinse mouth/gargle and spit after use to reduce oral thrush/hoarseness. Use a spacer if advised.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
