Q. Does Budemon 0.5mg Respules help with cough?

Budemon 0.5mg Respules helps relieve cough if it is caused due to asthma. In children, it is used to relieve cough which sounds like ‘dog bark’. This cough is caused due to irritation and swelling of the airways which further makes the airways narrow. As a result, when your child tries to breathe through the narrow passage, it becomes hard to breathe and causes coughing. Budemon 0.5mg Respules helps to reduce this irritation and swelling of the airways.

Yes, if you are taking Budemon 0.5mg Respules orally, your blood sugar levels may increase. However, with Budemon 0.5mg Respules inhalers, an increase in the blood sugar levels is very rare but may increase only if very high doses are taken for a very long time.
