WHAT FOSTER IS USED FOR
Foster is indicated in the regular
treatment of:
Asthma
_ _
- asthma not adequately controlled
with inhaled corticosteroids and “as
needed” rapid-acting β
2
-agonists or
- asthma already controlled on both
inhaled corticosteroids and long-
acting β
2
-agonists.
COPD
-Foster can also be used to treat the
symptoms of severe chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD) in adults. COPD is a long
term disease of the airways in the
lungs which is primarily caused by
cigarette smoking.
HOW FOSTER WORKS
Foster
is
a
pressurised
inhalation
solution
containing
beclometasone
diproprionate, a glucocorticoid with
anti-inflammatory
action
reducing
the
swelling
and
irritation
in
the
walls of the small air passage in the
lungs,
and
formoterol
fumarate,
a
selective
β
2
-adrenergic
agonist
that
produces
relaxation
of
bronchial
smooth muscle in reversible airway
obstruction.
The
combination
of
these
active
substances
make
breathing easier, by providing relief
from symptoms such as shortness of
breath,
wheezing
and
cough
in
asthma
and
also
help
to
prevent
asthma worsening.
BEFORE YOU USE FOSTER
-
_When you must not use it:_
-If you are allergic or think you are
allergic to one or other of the active
ingredients of Foster, or if you are
allergic
to
other
medicines
or
inhalers used to treat asthma or to
any of the other ingredients of Foster,
contact your doctor for advice.
