Formonide 200 Inhaler is an inhaled medicine, which means it is taken by breathing it into the lungs. It is not to be taken orally or internally.

Formonide 200 Inhaler contains two active ingredients: formoterol and budesonide.

• Formoterol relaxes the muscles in the airways, making it easier for air to flow and improve oxygen capacity within the lungs.
• Budesonide inhibits the release of specific chemical messengers that cause inflammation in the airways.

Together, these ingredients work by preventing inflammation caused by asthma or COPD and relaxing the muscles in the airways to allow for airflow.

The exact chemical or physiological processes involved in how formoterol and budesonide work are complex, but they ultimately help in reducing inflammation and opening up the airways for better airflow.
