بولميكورت توربوهالر 100 جرعه 200 م أي

Product Description.

Pulmicort is inhaled into the lungs for the treatment of asthma. Asthma is a disease where the airways of your lungs become narrow and inflamed (red and swollen), making it difficult to breathe. This may be due to an allergy to house dust mites, smoke, air pollution or other things that irritate your lungs.

Pulmicort contains budesonide. This belongs to a family of medicines called corticosteroids, which are used to reduce inflammation in many parts of the body.

Dosage.

The dose can range from 400 to 2400 micrograms per day, in divided doses (either 2, 3 or 4 times a day).
If you take 400 micrograms or less a day, you may take this as a single daily dose in the morning or evening.
When your asthma is under control, your doctor may tell you to use a lower dose. The usual maintenance dose is 100 to 400 micrograms per day. This may be given as a once or twice daily dose.
