About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Fomtide 400 CFC Free Inhaler is a combination medication containing Formoterol (6mcg) and Budesonide (400mcg) designed for the management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Formoterol is a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist that helps relax the muscles in the airways, facilitating easier breathing by preventing bronchospasm. Budesonide is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways, thereby decreasing the frequency and severity of asthma attacks and improving overall lung function. This inhaler is CFC-free, making it environmentally friendly by eliminating chlorofluorocarbons, which are harmful to the ozone layer. Fomtide 400 is typically prescribed for patients requiring both maintenance therapy to control persistent symptoms and prevention of exacerbations. It is important to use the inhaler regularly as directed by a healthcare professional, even when symptoms are not present, to achieve optimal control of respiratory conditions. Common side effects may include throat irritation, hoarseness, or oral thrush, which can be minimized by rinsing the mouth after use. Patients should consult their doctor before starting or discontinuing therapy and report any unusual symptoms promptly.
