DuoResp Spiromax is a prescription medicine recommended for people suffering from moderate to severe asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)DuoResp Spiromax is usually recommended to patients who don’t respond well to corticosteroids alone and require a combination of medications. Even though this medication is a long-term preventive measure, it can also be used as a ‘rescue measure’. This means that it can offer quick relief in case of an attack or breathlessness.

DuoResp Spiromax is a highly-effective medication for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It prevents attacks of breathlessness, relaxes the lungs, and reduces any swelling or irritation in the airways. DuoResp Spiromax has been developed as an equivalent of the medicine Symbicort Turbohaler and when used to treat patients with asthma and COPD, the medications have shown equivalent results.

DuoResp Spiromax contains two active ingredients: budesonide and formoterol. Budesonide is an anti-inflammatory ingredient that belongs to the group of medicines called corticosteroids. This ingredient helps reduce inflammation in the airways to allow you to breathe more easily. The second ingredient, Formoterol is a long-acting beta-2 agonist. It helps your lungrelax and keeps the airways open for easy breathing.

The combination of Budesonide and Formoterol in DuoResp Spiromax helps prevent breathlessness and reduces the frequency of flare-ups. DuoResp Spiromax is also helpful in reducing any swelling or irritation in the airways.
