FORAHALE-0.5 Respules

Product Range: Inspicare Respiratory Care

Composition: Budesonide (0.5 mg) + Formoterol Fumarate (20 mcg)

Format: Respiratory Solution for Nebulization (2ml Unit Dose Vials)

Product Overview

FORAHALE-0.5 Respules provide a high-potency combination therapy in a liquid form tailored for nebulization. This format is specifically designed for the management of severe Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) where standard inhalers (MDIs/DPIs) may not provide sufficient relief or cannot be used effectively by the patient. By converting the medication into a fine mist, it ensures deep lung penetration even during shallow breathing.

The Science of Dual Action

• Budesonide (0.5 mg): A strong anti-inflammatory corticosteroid. When nebulized, it coats the bronchial airways to significantly reduce swelling and mucus production, preventing long-term lung damage.
• Formoterol Fumarate (20 mcg): A potent long-acting bronchodilator. At this specific nebulization strength, it relaxes the tight muscles around the airways rapidly, making it easier for patients to breathe almost immediately.

Key Benefits & Uses:

• Passive Delivery: Ideal for elderly patients, children, or those in acute distress who cannot coordinate breathing with a handheld inhaler.
• Acute Management: Highly effective for controlling sudden flare-ups (exacerbations) of COPD or Asthma.
• Deep Lung Reach: The nebulizer machine breaks the solution into microscopic particles that reach the deepest parts of the lungs (alveoli).
• Rapid & Sustained Relief: Offers the dual benefit of quick airway opening (Formoterol) and sustained inflammation control (Budesonide).

Standard Dosage Guidelines:

The dosage is specifically determined by a pulmonologist or physician based on the severity of Asthma or COPD.

Patient Group	Typical Dosage	Frequency
Adults (18+ yrs)	One 2 mL respule	Twice daily (Morning & Evening)
Children (6–17 yrs)	One 2 mL respule	Twice daily (or as directed)
Children (< 6 yrs)	Not Recommended	Safety not established for this age group.

• Maximum Daily Dose: Do not exceed 2 respules per day (40 mcg of Formoterol) unless strictly supervised in a clinical setting.
• Maintenance Therapy: This is a long-term controller medication. It must be used every day to keep airways open, even if you do not have symptoms.

How to Use?

1. Prepare: Open the foil pouch and detach one respule strip.
2. Open: Hold the respule upright and twist off the top tab.
3. Fill: Squeeze the entire content of the respule into the medication cup of the nebulizer machine.
4. Nebulize: Connect the mask/mouthpiece, turn on the machine, and breathe normally and calmly through the mask until the mist stops (usually 10–15 minutes).
5. Cleanse: Essential: Rinse mouth with water (and wash face if a mask was used) after treatment to prevent fungal infections or skin irritation.

Safety Information & Precautions

• Not for Rescue Use: Do not use Forahale Respules to treat a sudden, severe asthma attack. Always keep a fast-acting “rescue” inhaler (like Salbutamol) nearby for emergencies.
• Single Use Only: Each respule is sterile and preservative-free. Once opened, it must be used immediately. Discard any leftover solution.
• Storage: Store the respules inside the protective foil pouch to protect them from light. Store below 30°C. Do not freeze. Keep away from the reach of children.
• Prescription Only: This is a Schedule H drug. It is a powerful medication and must be used strictly under the supervision of a Pulmonologist or Physician.
• Heart Precautions: Because it contains Formoterol (a stimulant), inform your doctor if you have high blood pressure, an irregular heartbeat, or thyroid issues.

Notice: Take any medicine only on advise of a registered medical practitioner only.
