Foracort G Inhaler (Budesonide/Formoterol/Glycopyrrolate)

This medicine is prescribed for:

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Severe asthma not controlled by other medicines
• Chronic bronchitis
• Emphysema
• Long-term wheezing, cough, chest tightness, and breathing difficulty
• Maintenance treatment of respiratory diseases

This medicine is not intended for sudden asthma attacks.

This medicine works through three active ingredients:

• Budesonide reduces inflammation and swelling inside the airways.
• Formoterol relaxes the muscles around the air passages and keeps them open.
• Glycopyrrolate blocks certain signals that cause narrowing of the airways.

Together, they help prevent breathing problems and provide long-lasting relief from respiratory symptoms.

• Shake the inhaler well before use.
• Remove the cap and breathe out fully.
• Place the mouthpiece in your mouth and press the inhaler while breathing in deeply.
• Hold your breath for about 10 seconds and then breathe out slowly.
• If more than one puff is prescribed, wait about 30 seconds before the next puff.
• Rinse your mouth after use to reduce the risk of fungal infection caused by Budesonide.
• Use this medicine regularly at the same time each day.

Usual Dose:

• Usually 1 to 2 puffs once or twice daily as prescribed by your doctor
• The exact dose depends on the inhaler strength and your medical condition
