WHAT BUFOMIDE EASYHALER 160/4.5 IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Bufomide Easyhaler is an inhaler that is used to treat asthma in
adults and adolescents aged 12 - 17
years. It is also used to treat the symptoms of Chronic Obstructive
Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in
adults aged 18 years and older. It contains two different medicines:
budesonide and formoterol
fumarate dihydrate.

Budesonide belongs to a group of medicines called
‘corticosteroids’. It works by reducing and
preventing swelling and inflammation in your lungs.

Formoterol fumarate dihydrate belongs to a group of medicines called
‘long-acting
beta
2
adrenoceptor agonists’ or ‘bronchodilators’. It works by
relaxing the muscles in your
airways. This helps you to breathe more easily.
