Product introduction

Your doctor will tell you how often to use this inhaler and prescribe the lowest dose needed to keep your asthma under control. This medicine must be used regularly, even when you do not have symptoms, as it helps prevent breathing problems and reduces the risk of asthma flare-ups. The full benefit may take a few weeks of regular use. This inhaler is not intended to relieve sudden asthma symptoms, always keep a fast-acting reliever inhaler available for immediate relief. Correct inhaler technique is important to ensure the medicine reaches the lungs and works effectively.

Common side effects include headache, throat irritation, hoarseness of voice, cough, and oral fungal infection. These effects are usually mild, and rinsing your mouth or brushing your teeth after each use can help reduce throat irritation and the risk of infection. Contact your doctor if symptoms persist, worsen, or if your asthma becomes harder to control. Avoid stopping this medicine suddenly unless advised by your doctor.

Before using this medicine, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy. Tell your doctor about any other medical conditions and medicines you are taking so your treatment can be adjusted if necessary. Regular medical review is important to ensure that you are receiving the lowest effective dose for long-term asthma control.

How Formoflo Transhaler works

Formoflo 250 Transhaler is a combination of two medicines: Formoterol and Fluticasone Propionate. Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widening them. Fluticasone Propionate is a steroid. It works by stopping the release of certain chemical messengers that cause inflammation (swelling) of the airways. Together, they make breathing easier.

Quick tips

Formoflo 250 Transhaler is a combination of two medicines that open the airways and make it easier to breathe.
It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing.
Dry mouth may occur as a side effect. Frequent mouth rinses, good oral hygiene, increased water intake, and sugarless candy may help.
Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
Only minuscule amounts of Formoflo 250 Transhaler may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects are unlikely.
