Foracort Forte Inhaler (Budesonide/Formoterol)

What Is Foracort Forte Inhaler and How Does It Work?

Foracort Forte Inhaler is a combination of two medications, Formoterol and Budesonide, used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and reducing inflammation, making breathing easier and relieving symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.

Formoterol, a long-acting bronchodilator, helps open up the airways, while Budesonide, a steroid, prevents the release of chemicals that cause inflammation in the airways. Together, these two medications help keep the airways open, making it easier for air to flow in and out of the lungs.

1. Shake the Inhaler: Shake the inhaler well before use to ensure the medication is properly mixed.
2. Prepare the Inhaler: Insert the mouthpiece into your mouth and press down on the inhaler to release the medication.
3. Inhale Deeply: Inhale deeply through your mouth and hold your breath for at least 10 seconds to allow the medication to take effect.
4. Repeat if Necessary: Repeat the inhalation process if your doctor has recommended more puffs. Always follow the prescribed dosage.
5. Clean Your Mouth: After use, rinse your mouth with water to reduce the risk of side effects like mouth irritation or infection.
