Symbicort Inhaler (budesonide and formoterol) Indications

Symbicort Inhaler, generic name budesonide and formoterol fumarate dihydrate, is an oral prescription inhalation used for the treatment of asthma for adult and pediatric patients who are 6 years of age and older.

Symbicort Inhaler is used as maintenance treatment for airflow obstruction associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which may include chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or both.

Symbicort Inhaler is not a rescue inhaler and should not be used to relieve acute bronchospasm.

Symbicort Inhaler is classified as a corticosteroid and a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA). It acts by inhibiting the mediators and cell types responsible for inflammation and it relaxes the bronchial smooth muscle as it inhibits the mediators involved in immediate hypersensitivity response.
