Product Introduction
FOMtide 400 Octacaps is a combination medicine containing Formoterol and Budesonide, used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It helps control breathing difficulties by reducing airway inflammation and relaxing the airway muscles, making it easier to breathe.
This medicine should be used regularly for maximum effectiveness, even when symptoms are not present. It is not suitable for sudden asthma attacks—a quick-relief (rescue) inhaler should be used instead in such cases. Proper inhalation technique is important to ensure the medicine works effectively.
How to Use
- Use FOMtide 400 Octacaps exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
- Inhale the contents through the prescribed device (such as a Rotahaler or similar dry powder inhaler).
- Do not swallow the capsule.
- Rinse your mouth and throat with water after inhalation to reduce the risk of fungal infection.
How FOMtide 400 Octacaps Works
FOMtide 400 Octacaps contains:
- Formoterol: A long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles and widens the air passages, improving airflow.
- Budesonide: A corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and prevents the release of substances that cause airway swelling and irritation.
Together, they help relieve symptoms like wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and cough, allowing for better lung function and easier breathing.
