Quikhale FB 200 Inhaler

QUIKHALE FB 200MG INHALER is used in adults and children over 6 years for the regular management of asthma and moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with frequent symptoms and a history of recurrent exacerbations.

It contains a combination of medicines called Budesonide and Formoterol, which belong to the group of medicines called Inhaled corticosteroids, Long-acting beta-adrenergic agonists. Budesonide is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways, helping to manage asthma attacks and improve breathing. Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles around the airways, making it easier to breathe by widening the air passages.

Asthma is a respiratory disease in which airways get narrower, swell, and produce extra mucus. COPD is a chronic inflammatory disease of the lung that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs. Symptoms of these diseases include difficulty breathing, coughing, wheezing, sputum production, etc.

Your doctor will regularly monitor the growth pattern of your child using QUIKHALE FB 200MG INHALER. Before using this medicine, your doctor might advise you to perform certain respiratory tests to assess the severity of the respiratory disorder and flow in the lungs.
