Description
Pulmicort Tubuhaler is an inhaled corticosteroid which contains the active ingredient budesonide. It works directly in the lungs by reducing the irritation and swelling of the airways caused by asthma, thus making breathing easier. The usual dosage of Pulmicort Tubuhaler for adults ages 18 years and older is 180 mcg to 360 mcg which you inhale (breathe into your lungs) twice daily or as directed by your physician.
This medication must be used regularly to be effective. It does not work right away and should not be used to relieve sudden asthma attacks. If an asthma attack occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler as prescribed.
To prevent dry mouth, hoarseness, and oral yeast infections from developing, gargle, rinse your mouth with water and spit out after each use. Do not swallow the rinse water.
Dry/irritated throat, hoarseness, voice changes, bad taste in the mouth, runny nose or nosebleeds may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist immediately.
