Introduction

Fullform 200 Rotacap is a combination of two medicines: Beclometasone and Formoterol. It is used to treat asthma and COPD. Your doctor will tell you how often you need to use your inhaler. It's 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 don't have any symptoms. That means it's doing its job. If you stop taking it, your asthma and COPD may get worse.

Rotacaps must not be swallowed. Check the label for directions before use. Place the capsule at the base of rotahaler, not in the mouthpiece. Twist the mouthpiece completely until you hear a click and breathe in deeply through the mouthpiece. Hold your breath for up to 10 seconds. If some powder remains in the rotahaler, repeat the process.

Fullform 200 Rotacap is a combination of two medicines: Beclometasone and Formoterol. Beclometasone is a steroid that gets absorbed into the cells of the inner surface of the nose and works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers that cause inflammation (swelling) and allergies. This relieves blocked or runny nose, sneezing, and sinus discomfort. Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widens the airways. Together, they make breathing easier.

It should be taken at the same time each day. It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing. Take the first dose of this medicine under medical supervision as it may cause wheezing or tightening of the airways (bronchospasm) immediately after using. Only miniscule amounts of Fullform 200 Rotacap may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects are unlikely.
