Introducing the Budesonide Formoterol Aerosol Inhaler 160/4.5 mcg by Prasco Labs – your partner in effective respiratory management. Designed for individuals with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), this combination inhaler offers dual relief by addressing both inflammation and bronchoconstriction. Experience the freedom of easier breathing with a reliable, portable solution tailored to improve your respiratory health.

Product Details and Features:

Combination Therapy: Integrates two powerful medications – Budesonide (160 mcg) and Formoterol (4.5 mcg) – to provide comprehensive inhalation therapy.
Weight and Form: Available in a portable 10.2-gram aerosol inhaler, designed for ease of use and convenience.
Precise Dosage: Metered-dose inhaler technology ensures consistent delivery of medication, optimizing therapeutic outcomes.
Enhanced Adherence: Features a built-in dose counter for tracking medication usage and ensuring adherence to prescribed regimens.

Mechanism of Action:

Budesonide: A corticosteroid, Budesonide functions by reducing inflammation directly in the lungs, decreasing swelling and irritation in the airways. This minimizes the occurrence of asthma attacks and exacerbations in COPD.
Formoterol: A long-acting beta-agonist (LABA), Formoterol works by relaxing the muscles around the respiratory airways, helping to keep the airways open and prevent obstruction, thereby easing breathing.

Directions:

1. Prime the Inhaler: Before first use, or if not used for more than a week, shake well and release a test spray into the air.
2. Inhalation: Shake well before each spray. Exhale fully and place the mouthpiece in your mouth, sealing your lips around it. Inhale deeply and slowly while pressing down on the canister. Hold your breath for 10 seconds, if possible, to ensure full delivery of the medication.
3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the canister is kept at room temperature, away from heat and open flames.

Warnings:

  • Allergic Reactions: Discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention if you experience skin rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
  • Regular Monitoring: Consistent use of LABA alone without a steroid can increase the risk of asthma-related hospitalizations or death. Always use as prescribed in combination with Budesonide.
  • Not for Acute Symptoms: This inhaler is not intended for relief of acute bronchospasm or asthma attacks. Ensure you have a fast-acting inhaler available for immediate relief.
  • Other Medication Interactions: Consult with your healthcare provider about any concurrent use of medications, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements.

Side Effects:

  • Common: Headache, throat irritation, hoarseness, oral thrush, and palpitations.
  • Serious: Increased heart rate, hypertension, signs of infection (fever, persistent sore throat), and vision changes. Seek immediate medical help for severe or persistent issues.
  • Risk of Bone Fracture: Long-term usage may affect bone density. Consider discussing risk factors with your healthcare provider, especially if you have a history of osteoporosis.

By choosing the Budesonide Formoterol Aerosol Inhaler from Prasco Labs, you prioritize quality and efficacy in managing your respiratory condition. Trust in our commitment to innovation and health, ensuring you breathe better every day.

FAQs for Budesonide Medicines
  • Why Would a Doctor Prescribe Budesonide?

    Doctors prescribe budesonide for: Asthma (maintenance inhaler) Allergic rhinitis (nasal spray for hay fever/allergy symptoms) Ulcerative colitis & Crohn’s disease (oral tablets/capsules or rectal foam/enemas for GI inflammation) Eosinophilic esophagitis & microscopic colitis Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in some protocols

  • Can Budesonide Cause Diarrhea?

    Yes, budensonide can cause diarrhea as a side effect, particularly when used for gastrointestinal conditions. Contact your doctor if diarrhea is severe or persistent.

  • Can Budesonide Cause Headaches?

    Yes. Headache is a possible side effect with both inhaled and oral forms of budesonide. Hydration and taking medication with food may help minimize this effect.

  • Can Children Take Budesonide Tablets?

    Budesonide inhalers and nebulizers are FDA-approved for children (as young as 1 year for inhalation). Oral tablets/capsules may be used in pediatric GI disorders, but only under specialist supervision.

  • Is Budesonide Safe in Pregnancy?

    Budesonide is generally considered the safest inhaled steroid option in pregnancy for asthma. Oral budesonide should be used only if clearly needed and under your doctor’s guidance.

  • What Is the Most Common Side Effect of Budesonide?

    Hoarseness, throat irritation, and cough (with inhalers) are most common. For oral forms, nausea, headache, and mild GI upset are typical.

  • How Long Should You Take Budesonide for Colitis?

    Treatment duration is tailored to severity, but oral budesonide is commonly prescribed for 8–12 weeks for acute flares, sometimes followed by lower maintenance dosing. Never stop abruptly without your doctor’s advice.

  • How Long Will Budesonide Stay in Your System?

    Budesonide’s half-life is 2–4 hours, but effects last longer. It typically takes about 24 hours to clear from your system after the last dose.

  • Can Budesonide Raise Blood Pressure?

    Budesonide may slightly raise blood pressure in some people, usually only with long-term/high-dose use. Monitor regularly, especially if you have hypertension.

  • Can You Take Tylenol with Budesonide?

    Yes, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is safe to use with budesonide—no known drug interaction. Avoid excess NSAIDs unless approved by your physician.

  • Can I Take Budesonide for Life?

    Long-term budesonide (especially inhaled/nasal) is safe for many, but chronic oral use requires careful doctor monitoring for side effects. Your doctor will weigh risks and benefits.

  • Does Budesonide Make You Hungry?

    Inhaled budesonide rarely affects appetite. Oral budesonide (as a steroid) may increase hunger or lead to mild weight gain, but less so than prednisone.

  • Who Cannot Take Budesonide?

    Those with a known allergy to budesonide or other corticosteroids Patients with severe liver impairment (especially with oral forms) Active systemic infections (tuberculosis, untreated fungal, or viral) Children or pregnant women (oral forms) without close medical supervision

  • Can Budesonide Cause Infertility?

    No direct evidence links budesonide to infertility when used as prescribed. Talk to your doctor if you have fertility concerns or are planning pregnancy.

  • Does Budesonide Raise Blood Sugar?

    Oral and high-dose budesonide may raise blood sugar, especially in people with diabetes or prediabetes. Monitor levels regularly.

  • Can Budesonide Cause Yeast Infections?

    Inhaled budesonide increases the risk of oral thrush (a mouth yeast infection). Rinse mouth thoroughly after each use to help prevent this. Vaginal yeast infections are rare but possible with prolonged oral use.
