Foracort 400 Inhaler is a prescription medication used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).


Key information

  • Active ingredients: Each inhalation delivers a combination of budesonide (400 mcg) and formoterol fumarate (6 mcg).
  • Budesonide: An inhaled corticosteroid that reduces swelling and inflammation in the airways.
  • Formoterol: A long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles in the airways to widen them, making breathing easier.
  • Function: This combination therapy offers both anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator effects to improve lung function and ease symptoms like wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.
  • Usage: It is not a rescue inhaler and should not be used for sudden shortness of breath. You should always carry a separate rescue inhaler for acute symptoms.

  • Asthma: Helps prevent asthma attacks and manage long-term symptoms.
