WHAT EASYHALER BUDESONIDE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
The active ingredient in Easyhaler Budesonide is budesonide.
Budesonide powder is packed in an inhaler.
You inhale the powder into your lungs through the mouthpiece of the
inhaler. Budesonide works by reducing
and preventing swelling and inflammation in your lungs.
Easyhaler Budesonide is a medicine called “
PREVENTER
”. It is used to prevent symptoms of asthma. It belongs
to a group of medicines called corticosteroids.
Budesonide will NOT stop an asthma attack that has already started.
Therefore you always need to have a
fast acting bronchodilating “
RELIEVER”
(a beta
2
-agonist) with you.
The effect of budesonide may be noticeable after a few days treatments
but will only reach its maximum
after a few weeks. You should use Easyhaler Budesonide regularly to
prevent the asthmatic inflammation.
Go on taking this medicine regularly according to instructions,
