How Budetrol 200 Capsule works

Budesonide is an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways. It decreases the release of inflammatory mediators, leading to improved breathing and fewer exacerbations when used regularly.

How to take Budetrol 200 Capsule

For inhalation use only with a compatible dry powder inhaler device (e.g., rotacap/capsule inhaler as prescribed). Use regularly at the same time each day; do not swallow the capsule. Rinse mouth/gargle with water after each use to reduce risk of oral thrush. Dose and frequency as directed by physician.

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

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

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 200 Capsule

Most side effects of Budetrol are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:

  • Oral thrush (candidiasis)

  • throat irritation
  • cough
  • headache
  • nausea

Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
