Description

Symbicort 80/4.5 mcg Inhaler
(Budesonide/Formoterol Fumarate)

Description:
Symbicort 80/4.5 mcg is a combination inhaler containing budesonide, a corticosteroid, and formoterol fumarate, a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA). This combination therapy is designed to help manage and control symptoms associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Budesonide works by reducing inflammation in the airways, making it easier to breathe, while formoterol works as a bronchodilator to relax the muscles around the airways, helping to keep them open for improved airflow. Together, these medications provide both anti-inflammatory and bronchodilatory effects, making Symbicort 80/4.5 mcg an effective maintenance therapy for long-term symptom control.

Symbicort 80/4.5 mcg is indicated for twice-daily use in the maintenance treatment of asthma and COPD to prevent wheezing, shortness of breath, chronic cough, and other respiratory symptoms. The inhaler is easy to use, delivering a measured dose of medication with each actuation to ensure consistent and effective symptom relief.
