Budetrol 200 Inhaler 120 MDI is a prescription medicine used in the management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is a fixed-dose combination inhaler that contains two active ingredients: Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, and Formoterol fumarate, a long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA). Together, these medicines provide both anti-inflammatory and bronchodilatory effects, helping patients achieve better breathing control, reduce symptoms, and improve quality of life.
Asthma and COPD are chronic respiratory conditions characterized by inflammation, narrowing of airways, and difficulty in breathing. Budetrol 400 Inhaler helps reduce airway inflammation and relaxes the airway muscles, allowing easier airflow and symptom relief. It is not a rescue inhaler but a maintenance therapy intended for long-term use.

- Improves lung function: Helps increase airflow, reduce breathlessness, and support better respiratory endurance.
- Reduces COPD exacerbations: Lowers the frequency of flare-ups in COPD patients, improving daily activity levels.
- Easy-to-use inhaler format: Provides targeted delivery to the lungs with minimal systemic side effects when used correctly.
How Budetrol 200 Inhaler works
Budetrol 200 Inhaler 120 MDI works through the synergistic action of:
- Budesonide (200 mcg): A corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways by inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory chemicals such as cytokines and prostaglandins. It helps decrease airway swelling and mucus production.
- Formoterol fumarate (6 mcg): A long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes the smooth muscles in the lungs, allowing the airways to widen. This results in better airflow and reduced wheezing and breathlessness.
