Formatide Inhaler (80 mcg + 4.5 mcg)/Puff is a combination inhalation therapy containing Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, and Formoterol Fumarate, a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA). This low-dose strength is formulated for the maintenance treatment of asthma and selected cases of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), offering effective control of airway inflammation and sustained bronchodilation in a single inhaler.

Budesonide plays a key role in reducing inflammation, swelling, and mucus production in the airways. By addressing the underlying inflammatory process, it helps prevent asthma attacks, decrease symptom frequency, and improve overall lung function. Formoterol Fumarate works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the bronchial walls, resulting in long-lasting airway dilation. Its rapid onset of action provides early symptom relief, while its prolonged duration ensures extended control of breathing difficulties.

The 80 mcg + 4.5 mcg strength is generally suitable for patients requiring a lower maintenance dose or those in earlier stages of therapy, as determined by a registered physician.
