Combivair Forte Capsule

Combivair Forte Capsule is a capsule made by Highnoon Laboratories Ltd that contains Formoterol + Budesonide, a combination steroid and long-acting bronchodilator inhaler. It is used for asthma and COPD. Pack size: 30 capsules.

Uses of Combivair Forte Capsule

Combivair Forte Capsule combines a preventer and a long-acting reliever in one inhaler. It is used regularly to keep asthma under control and to reduce symptoms and flare-ups in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In some asthma treatment plans the same inhaler is also used when symptoms appear. It does not replace emergency care during a severe attack.

How Combivair Forte Capsule works

This inhaler has two active ingredients. Budesonide is an inhaled steroid that reduces inflammation and swelling in the lining of the airways. Formoterol relaxes the smooth muscle around the airways quickly and keeps them open for hours, making breathing easier.

Possible side effects

Like other inhalers of this type, Combivair Forte Capsule can cause some side effects, such as:

• Sore throat or hoarseness
• Oral thrush
• Shaky hands
• Fast or pounding heartbeat
• Headache
• Muscle cramps

Seek emergency help if you become very breathless, your lips turn blue, or wheezing suddenly gets worse after a dose. Stop using it and get help at once for swelling of the face, mouth or throat.

Precautions and warnings

• After every dose, rinse your mouth with water and spit it out to help prevent thrush.
• Keep using it regularly as prescribed, because stopping suddenly can lead to a flare-up of asthma or COPD.
• Let your doctor know if you have high blood pressure, heart rhythm problems, diabetes, an overactive thyroid or a past history of tuberculosis.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, keep your asthma controlled and discuss your inhaler with your doctor.
• See your doctor if you need your inhaler more often than usual, as this may mean your condition is getting worse.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
