Introduction

Budojet LV 1.25mg/0.5mg Respules is a combination of two medicines: Levosalbutamol and Budesonide. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator which works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widens the airways. Budesonide is a corticosteroid. It acts by stopping the release of certain natural substances in body that are responsible for inflammation (swelling) in the airways. Together they make breathing easier. Your doctor will tell you how often you need to use your inhaler. 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 don't have any symptoms. That means it's doing its job. If you stop taking it your symptoms may get worse. This medicine should not be used to relieve sudden shortness of breath. If sudden shortness of breath occurs use your rescue inhaler. To get the benefit from this medicine you need to make sure you get your inhaler technique right otherwise it does not work as well.
