Foralin 200 Inhaler – Budesonide 200mcg + Formoterol 6mcg | Asthma & COPD Maintenance Treatment
Foralin 200 Inhaler is a dual-action prescription inhaler specially formulated for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Each dose delivers a combination of Budesonide (200 mcg), an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces airway inflammation, and Formoterol (6 mcg), a long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles in the airways to improve airflow.
This inhaler is designed to provide effective maintenance therapy by controlling chronic respiratory symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Unlike rescue inhalers, Foralin 200 is not intended for the immediate relief of sudden breathing attacks but instead works best when used regularly to prevent flare-ups and maintain stable lung function.
Foralin 200 helps patients breathe more easily by reducing airway swelling while simultaneously keeping the bronchial passages open. Its dual mechanism ensures both rapid onset of action and sustained symptom control, making it highly effective in improving quality of life for individuals with moderate to severe asthma and COPD.
The inhaler is easy to use and portable, offering reliable dosing with each actuation. Patients should follow their doctor’s prescribed regimen consistently, as abrupt discontinuation may worsen symptoms. Proper inhalation technique and regular monitoring are essential to maximize effectiveness and minimize side effects.
By combining anti-inflammatory protection with long-lasting bronchodilation, Foralin 200 Inhaler is a trusted option for patients requiring daily respiratory maintenance therapy under medical supervision.
