Formatide HFA 4.5/80 is a combination inhaler used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This inhaler combines:
Formoterol (4.5 mcg): A long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) that helps to relax and open the airways for improved airflow.
Budesonide (80 mcg): A corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways, helping to prevent irritation, swelling, and mucus buildup.
The combination provides effective 24-hour symptom control, reducing the frequency of asthma attacks and managing symptoms of COPD such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and tightness in the chest.
