Formatide Inhalation Capsule 400 mcg + 12 mcg is a high-strength combination therapy formulated with Budesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, and Formoterol Fumarate, a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA). This dual-action inhalation capsule is designed for the maintenance treatment of moderate to severe asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), providing enhanced anti-inflammatory and bronchodilatory effects in a single, convenient dose.

Budesonide works by suppressing airway inflammation, reducing swelling, and limiting excess mucus production in the respiratory tract. By targeting the underlying inflammatory process, it helps prevent asthma exacerbations and improves long-term lung function. Formoterol Fumarate relaxes the bronchial smooth muscles, producing rapid and sustained bronchodilation. Its long duration of action ensures extended symptom control, helping patients experience improved airflow and reduced breathlessness.

The 400 mcg + 12 mcg strength is particularly suitable for patients who require higher doses of inhaled corticosteroids combined with long-acting bronchodilator therapy to achieve optimal disease control.
