What is Formoterol Fumarate and Budesonide Powder for Inhalation IP 400?

The main keyword here is more than just a mouthful—it's a clinically trusted combination therapy:

  • Formoterol Fumarate (12 mcg): A long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) that relaxes airway muscles, allowing you to breathe more easily.

  • Budesonide (400 mcg): An inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways, preventing asthma and COPD flare-ups.

1. How long does it take to work?

Formoterol begins to work within 1 to 3 minutes, while budesonide works gradually to reduce inflammation over days or weeks with regular use.

No. This is a maintenance inhaler, not meant for sudden asthma attacks. Always keep a separate rescue inhaler (like salbutamol) for emergencies.

3. Can I use it if I'm already on another inhaler?

You should consult your doctor, but in many cases, this combination is used as a replacement or in conjunction with other treatments.

Rinsing your mouth after inhalation can help prevent some of these effects.
