THERAPEUTIC INDICATION 

Symbicort is indicated in the regular treatment of asthma where use
of a combination 
(inhaled corticosteroid and long acting beta-agonist) is
appropriate: 

-  patients not adequately controlled with inhaled corticosteroids
and “as needed” 
inhaled short acting beta
2
-agonists 
or 
-  patients already adequately controlled on both inhaled
corticosteroids and long 
acting beta
2
-agonists. 

NOTE: Symbicort Turbuhaler 80/4.5 micrograms/inhalation is not
appropriate in 
patients with severe asthma. 

POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION 
Symbicort is not intended for the initial management of asthma. The
dosage of the 
components of Symbicort is individual and should be adjusted to the
severity of the 
disease. This should be considered not only when treatment with
combination 
products is initiated but also when the maintenance dose
is adjusted. If an individual 
patient should require a combination of doses other than those
available in the 
combination inhaler, appropriate doses of beta
2
-agonists and/or corticosteroids by 
individual inhalers should be prescribed. 

For Symbicort there are two alternative therapies: 

SYMBICORT MAINTENANCE AND RELIEVER THERAPY: Symbicort is taken as
both regular
