Fullform Rotacaps 400mcg: Dual Therapy for Asthma and COPD Management
Fullform Rotacaps 400mcg is a prescription medication designed to manage chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This combination therapy contains two active ingredients: Beclometasone Dipropionate (400 mcg) and Formoterol Fumarate (6 mcg) per capsule. Beclometasone is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways, while Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that helps relax the muscles in the airways, making breathing easier.
Key Features
Dual Action Formula: Combines an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid with a bronchodilator to address both inflammation and airway constriction.
Long-Lasting Effects: Provides sustained relief, helping to control symptoms throughout the day.
Convenient Dosage: Available in a rotacap form for use with a compatible inhaler device, ensuring accurate dosing.
How It Works
Beclometasone Dipropionate works by inhibiting the release of substances that cause inflammation in the lungs, thereby reducing swelling and mucus production. Formoterol Fumarate acts by relaxing the muscles around the airways, allowing them to open up and improve airflow. Together, these medications help prevent asthma attacks and manage symptoms of COPD, such as wheezing and shortness of breath.
Usage Instructions
Preparation: Place the rotacap into the base of the rotahaler device.
Administration: Twist the mouthpiece completely until you hear a click, then inhale deeply through the mouthpiece.
Breath Holding: Hold your breath for about 10 seconds to allow the medication to reach deep into the lungs.
Repeat if Necessary: If some powder remains in the rotahaler, repeat the inhalation process.
