Budetrol 100 Inhaler

Formoterol (6mcg) + Budesonide (200mcg)

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.

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.

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.

Throat irritation,hoarseness/voice change,cough,oral thrush (candidiasis),dry mouth,headache,nausea

Not for immediate relief of acute asthma attack—keep a rescue inhaler (e.g., salbutamol) available. Use with caution in untreated infections (TB, fungal/viral/bacterial), glaucoma/cataract, osteoporosis, liver disease, and in children (may affect growth with long-term use). Do not stop abruptly without medical advice. Seek care if breathing worsens after use (paradoxical bronchospasm) or if frequent rescue inhaler use is needed.

Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase systemic steroid exposure (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, ritonavir/cobicistat, clarithromycin). Other corticosteroids (additive effects). Live vaccines/immunosuppressants: increased infection risk with high doses.

Store below 30°C, protect from direct heat and sunlight. Keep dry and away from moisture. Keep out of reach of children; do not puncture/throw into fire.
