FORACORT FORTE – 1 INHALER

FORACORT FORTE INHALER combines two potent medications: formoterol fumarate and budesonide. Formoterol is a long-acting beta-agonist that helps relax the muscles around the airways, improving airflow and reducing breathing difficulties. Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, works to decrease inflammation and swelling in the airways, helping to prevent and control asthma and COPD symptoms. Together, they offer extended relief and better management of respiratory conditions.

Usage Instructions:
Preparation: Shake the inhaler well before each use.
Inhalation: Exhale fully, hold the inhaler upright, and place the mouthpiece between your lips.
Activation: Press down on the inhaler to release the medication while inhaling deeply and slowly.
Breathing: Hold your breath for about 10 seconds, then exhale slowly.
Cleaning: Clean the mouthpiece with a dry cloth to remove any residue.
Frequency: Use as prescribed by your healthcare provider, typically twice daily.
Medicinal Advantages:
Dual Action: Combines formoterol and budesonide for comprehensive asthma and COPD management.
Reduced Inflammation: Budesonide helps lower airway inflammation.
Enhanced Airflow: Formoterol improves breathing by relaxing airway muscles.
Mechanism of Action:
FORACORT FORTE INHALER delivers a combination of formoterol and budesonide directly to the lungs. Formoterol, a long-acting beta-agonist, stimulates beta-adrenergic receptors in the airway muscles, leading to muscle relaxation and bronchodilation. Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways, helping to prevent and manage chronic respiratory symptoms.
