Foracort G Synchrobreathe

Product Overview

Foracort G Synchrobreathe CFC-Free Inhaler is a blend of three medicines used to manage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It helps in alleviating symptoms like coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath by addressing multiple factors that contribute to lung discomfort.

This inhaler should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Regular and consistent use is essential for it to be effective. Even if you feel better, you should continue the treatment unless your doctor advises otherwise, as stopping the medication prematurely may worsen your breathing issues.

While this inhaler is generally safe, some users may experience side effects such as dizziness, headache, vomiting, or nasal congestion. These are typically mild and tend to subside as your body adjusts to the medication. If these effects persist or you experience other concerns, speak with your doctor.

Before starting this treatment, inform your doctor of any existing health conditions and medications you are currently taking. It’s also important to discuss if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or breastfeeding, to ensure this medicine is safe for you. Avoid smoking while using this inhaler, as it can further damage the lungs and worsen symptoms.

How It Works

This inhaler contains three active ingredients:

Glycopyrrolate, an anticholinergic that blocks acetylcholine, preventing airway muscles from tightening.

Formoterol, a bronchodilator that relaxes and opens the airways, making breathing easier.

Budesonide, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by inhibiting chemical messengers that cause swelling and allergic reactions.

Together, these ingredients provide comprehensive control over COPD symptoms.
