Beclocort (HFA) Inhaler 100 mcg/puff contains Beclomethasone Dipropionate, an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) used for the long-term prevention and control of asthma. It works by reducing inflammation and swelling in the airways, making breathing easier and helping prevent asthma symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.

Beclomethasone targets inflammation directly in the lungs, reducing airway sensitivity and lowering the frequency and severity of asthma attacks. Unlike quick-relief inhalers, Beclocort (HFA) is a preventive (controller) medication and is not intended for the immediate relief of acute bronchospasm or sudden asthma attacks. Regular daily use, even when symptoms are well controlled, is essential for achieving optimal asthma management.

The HFA (Hydrofluoroalkane) inhaler delivers a measured dose of medication directly into the lungs, ensuring effective treatment with minimal systemic absorption. This targeted delivery helps improve lung function while reducing the risk of systemic corticosteroid-related side effects. Beclocort (HFA) Inhaler is suitable for adults and children as prescribed by a healthcare professional and may be used alone or in combination with other asthma medications, such as long-acting bronchodilators.

How Beclocort (HFA) Inhaler Works

Beclomethasone Dipropionate is an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation within the airways. It suppresses the release of inflammatory mediators, decreases airway swelling, reduces mucus production, and lowers airway hyperresponsiveness. These actions improve airflow, reduce asthma symptoms, and help prevent future asthma attacks.

Benefits of Beclocort (HFA) Inhaler

Dosage and Administration

Use Beclocort (HFA) Inhaler 100 mcg/puff exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

• Shake the inhaler well before each use.
• Inhale the prescribed number of puffs using the correct inhalation technique.
• If using more than one puff, wait about 30 seconds between inhalations if advised.
• Rinse your mouth with water after each use and spit it out to reduce the risk of oral fungal infections (thrush) and hoarseness.
