Common use
Pulmicort Inhaler is primarily used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It belongs to a class of medications known as corticosteroids. This medicine helps prevent symptoms such as wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath by controlling the inflammation in your lungs. It acts as a "preventer" medication rather than providing immediate relief during acute asthma attacks, meaning it works gradually to reduce the frequency and severity of asthma symptoms over time.
Dosage and direction
Follow these instructions while using Pulmicort Inhaler: Remove the protective cap from the mouthpiece before use. Shake the inhaler well before each use. Breathe out fully before placing the mouthpiece between your lips. Press down on the canister while taking a deep, steady breath in. Hold your breath for 5-10 seconds, then exhale slowly. Rinse your mouth with water after using the inhaler to prevent throat irritation. Clean the mouthpiece regularly with a dry cloth.
