Composition of Budetrol 100 Inhaler

Budetrol 100 Inhaler contains Formoterol (6mcg) + Budesonide (200mcg). It belongs to the Inhaled corticosteroid (Glucocorticoid) class of medicines.

Uses of Budetrol 100 Inhaler

Maintenance (preventive) treatment of asthma; control of airway inflammation and prevention of wheeze/shortness of breath. Also used as controller therapy in chronic respiratory inflammatory conditions as prescribed.

Benefits of Budetrol 100 Inhaler

In Asthma
Budetrol opens the airways or calms the inflammation inside them, depending on its type, so breathing is easier and attacks are fewer. Delivered straight into the lungs, it works where it is needed with very little reaching the rest of the body.
In Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Budetrol relaxes the airways so that air moves in and out more easily, reducing breathlessness and letting you walk further and do more before you have to stop.

How Budetrol 100 Inhaler works

Budesonide is an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, swelling and mucus production in the airways. This helps decrease airway hyper-responsiveness and prevents asthma symptoms and exacerbations when used regularly.

How to take Budetrol 100 Inhaler

For inhalation use only. Use exactly as prescribed; typically used regularly (once or twice daily) for maintenance, not for sudden attacks. Rinse mouth/gargle with water after each use to reduce risk of oral thrush. If using a bronchodilator inhaler as well, generally take the bronchodilator first and budesonide after a few minutes; use a spacer if advised.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of BUDEtrol 200 Inhaler, use it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause a racing heart, marked tremor, headache and a fall in blood potassium. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Budetrol 100 Inhaler

  • Throat irritation
  • hoarseness/voice change
  • cough
  • oral thrush (candidiasis)
  • dry mouth
