Introduction
Your doctor will tell you how often you need to use Budetag Forte 1mg Respules. It is important that you take the lowest dose needed to effectively control your asthma. The effect of this medicine may be noticeable after a few days but will only reach its maximum after a few weeks. This medicine must be used regularly to be effective, so go on taking it even if you do not have any symptoms. No symptoms mean that the medicine is doing its job. If you stop taking it, your asthma may get worse. It should not be used to relieve sudden asthma attacks. If an asthma attack occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler 'reliever'. To get the benefit from this medicine, you need to make sure you get your inhaler technique right, otherwise it will not work as well.
Directions for Use
Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Twist off the top of the respule/transpule and squeeze all the liquid into the nebulizer. It should be used right away after opening.

How it works
Budetag Forte 1mg Respules is a steroid. It prevents the cells in the lungs and breathing passages from releasing chemical messengers that cause inflammation (swelling) of the airways. This makes breathing easier.
Quick Tips
Budetag Forte 1mg Respules will not work for an ongoing asthma attack. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing. Take it at the same time every day to prevent asthma attacks. Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat. Never breathe out into the mouthpiece. Only minuscule amounts of Budetag Forte 1mg Respules may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects such as weight gain are unlikely.
