Budison F 200mcg+6mcg Arocap 1 Strip

Budison F 200 is a combination inhalation medicine containing budesonide and formoterol. It is used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Budesonide reduces inflammation in the airways, while formoterol relaxes airway muscles to help improve breathing.

Common side effects may include:

• Cough
• Oral fungal infection (oral thrush)
• Headache
• Hoarseness or voice changes
• Increased heart rate or palpitations
• Nausea and vomiting
• Sore throat
• Respiratory tract infections
• Muscle, bone, or joint pain

Rinse your mouth with water and spit it out after each use to reduce the risk of oral thrush. Contact your doctor if side effects persist or worsen.

• Use the inhaler exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
• If your product is a Rotacap formulation, place the capsule in the compatible inhalation device as instructed.
• Do not swallow Rotacaps. They are intended for inhalation only.
• Breathe in deeply through the device according to its instructions.
• Rinse your mouth after inhalation.
• Use the medicine regularly, even when you feel well.

Important: Budison F 200 is not intended to treat every sudden asthma attack. Keep your prescribed rescue inhaler available and follow your asthma action plan. The appropriate reliever treatment depends on your prescribed regimen and inhaler formulation.

Budison F 200 contains two active ingredients:

• Budesonide: An inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways.
• Formoterol: A long-acting beta-2 agonist that relaxes airway muscles and helps widen the airways.

Together, these medicines help improve airflow and control respiratory symptoms.

The appropriate dose depends on the patient's age, diagnosis, symptom severity, and the specific inhaler formulation.

For adults with asthma or COPD, the dose must be determined by the prescribing physician. Do not increase the dose or use extra inhalations without following your prescribed treatment plan.

Children should use this medicine only under medical supervision, with an age-appropriate formulation and dose.

• Do not use Budison F 200 to manage a severe, sudden episode of breathing difficulty unless your specific prescribed treatment plan explicitly directs its use as a reliever.
• Seek urgent medical attention if breathing suddenly worsens or your rescue medicine does not provide relief.
• Inform your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis, thyroid problems, or an active infection.
• Tell your doctor about any kidney or liver conditions and all medicines you take.
• Long-term use may increase the risk of oral fungal infection and, in some patients, reduced bone mineral density.
• Do not stop regular treatment without consulting your doctor.

Budison F 200 may interact with:

• CYP3A4 inhibitors: Medicines such as itraconazole and clarithromycin may increase exposure to budesonide.
• Non-potassium-sparing diuretics: May increase the risk of low potassium levels.
• Beta-blockers: Certain beta-blockers may reduce formoterol's bronchodilator effect.
• Other beta-agonists: Concurrent use may increase cardiovascular side effects.

Consult your doctor before using Budison F 200 during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Maintaining adequate asthma control during pregnancy is important, and treatment should be reviewed by a healthcare professional rather than stopped independently.

Store the medicine according to the manufacturer's instructions. Keep it dry, protected from excessive heat and moisture, and out of the reach of children. Follow the device-specific instructions for handling and disposing of Rotacaps.
