CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
ASTHMA
Symbicort is indicated in adults and adolescents (12 years and older)
for the regular treatment of asthma,
where use of a combination (inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting β
2
adrenoceptor agonist) is appropriate:
-
patients not adequately controlled with inhaled corticosteroids and
“as needed” inhaled short-acting β
2
adrenoceptor agonists.
or
-
patients already adequately controlled on both inhaled corticosteroids
and long-acting β
2
adrenoceptor
agonists.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Route of administration: Inhalation use
Posology
ASTHMA
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 β
2
adrenoceptor agonists and/or corticosteroids by individual inhalers
should be
prescribed.
The dose should be titrated to the lowest dose at which effective
control of symptoms is maintained. Patients
should be regularly reassessed by their prescriber/healthcare provider
so that the dosage of Symbicort
remains optimal.
