Budetrol 100 Inhaler 120 MDI

Budetrol 100 Inhaler is a prescription medicine designed to help patients manage and control chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Each inhaler contains Budesonide (100 mcg), a corticosteroid that reduces airway inflammation, and Formoterol (6 mcg), a long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles. Together, these two medicines improve breathing by preventing narrowing of the airways, reducing wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Regular use helps lower the frequency and severity of asthma attacks, improve lung function, and enhance quality of life. This inhaler provides up to 120 metered doses for convenient long-term therapy. It is not intended for immediate relief of sudden breathing difficulty but for maintenance treatment. Lifestyle modifications such as avoiding allergens, quitting smoking, and regular breathing exercises further improve its effectiveness.
