Medical Description

Budamate 200 transhaler is a combination medicine used for the treatment and maintenance of respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains formoterol and budesonide as active ingredients.

Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator, while budesonide is an inhaled steroid medicine that acts by relaxing the airways muscle and reducing inflammation, thus easing breathing. This medicine is used when asthma cannot be adequately controlled by other short-acting medicine and inhaled steroids. Foracort 200 synchro breathe inhaler, Formonide 200 inhaler and Digihaler FB 200 inhaler are some other medications with formoterol and budesonide as active ingredients.

You should not increase the dose or stop the treatment on your own even if you feel better, as it can reduce the effectiveness or cause side effects of the treatment. Inform your doctor if you are already taking any other medicines for any other condition. Rinse your mouth after 15 mins of using this inhaler to maintain oral hygiene and prevent oral infections.

Mode of Action of BUDAMATE 200MCG HFA PACKET OF 120MD TRANSHALER

How Does It Work?

  • Budesonide is a corticosteroid medicine, which on inhalation reduces inflammation in the airways in a dose-dependent manner, thus reduces the chances of worsening asthma.
  • Formoterol acts on the muscles in the airway tract. In the presence of inflammation (like in asthma), these muscles lead to constriction of the airway and causing breathlessness.
  • Formoterol relaxes these muscles, facilitating the opening of the airway and thus relieving breathlessness.
