Description

What is Aerocort?

Aerocort is a drug prescribed to treat asthma (wheezing and shortness of breath).

Levosalbutamol and Beclometasone are two primary ingredients of Aerocort.

It relaxes the airway muscles, making breathing easier.

What are the uses of Aerocort?

Aerocort is typically prescribed for the treatment of Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis.

Aerocort includes Beclometasone Dipropionate and Levosalbutamol. It can assist expand the airways that become constricted when breathing is difficult.

Beclometasone Dipropionate relaxes the muscles and airways, which facilitates breathing. It helps alleviate coughing, difficulty breathing, and chest stiffness or pain.

Levosalbutamol reduces airway inflammation induced by asthma triggers such as dust and pollen.

Dust mites, pet dander, and airborne pollen allergens can aggravate asthma.

How does Aerocort work?

Beclometasone Dipropionate is a well-known preventative. It is used for Asthma prevention and symptom management.

People with severe asthma whose symptoms cannot be controlled by other medications are given Beclometasone.

It relaxes the immune system, reduces lung edema, and alleviates breathing difficulties.

Beclometasone is used to treat persistent coughing and wheezing bouts.

Levosalbutamol is also used to treat Asthma, a lung illness caused by Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

Levasalbutamol’s mechanism of action involves relaxing the airway muscles and widening the airways. This makes breathing easier.

It can also aid those with breathing issues, such as puffed breathing.

By relaxing the muscles in the airways, Aerocort increases lung ventilation.

Together, the two active ingredients in Aerocort make breathing easier for individuals with respiratory issues.
