Budesonide/Formoterol Rapihaler - What is it for

Symbicort is an inhaler used for the regular treatment of asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is a progressive lung disease that affects the body’s ability to breathe well.

Symbicort contains two ingredients - Budesonide and Formoterol. Budesonide is a steroid that reduces inflammation in the airways. Formoterol opens up the airway, making it easier for air to move in and out of the lung, therefore helping you to breathe more easily.
