Description

Digihaler FB 200 Inhaler is a combination inhaler that contains:

• Formoterol (6mcg): A long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA) that relaxes airway muscles, helping to open airways and improve breathing.

• Budesonide (200mcg): An inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) that reduces airway inflammation, swelling, and mucus production.

This combination provides dual action—rapid relief from bronchoconstriction and long-term control of airway inflammation—making it effective for patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Digihaler FB 200 also incorporates digital tracking technology, allowing patients and healthcare providers to monitor inhaler usage and improve adherence to prescribed therapy.

Uses

• Maintenance treatment of asthma in adults and adolescents

• Prevention of asthma symptoms such as wheezing, breathlessness, and nighttime attacks

• Chronic management of COPD in patients with airflow obstruction and frequent exacerbations

• Helps reduce airway inflammation and prevent exacerbations

Dosage & Directions for Use

• Usually, 1 inhalation twice daily, or as directed by a physician.

• Shake the inhaler before use and exhale fully before inhaling the dose.
