Budecort Rotacaps 400 mg prevent asthma symptoms (like wheezing and breath shortness). Budecort contains Budesonide, which belongs to a family of drugs called steroids. It works by preventing the release of inflammation-causing chemicals and substances in the body.
Budesonide in inhalation form is used to prevent asthma attacks. However, it cannot treat an asthma attack which has already started. This medication may also treat other conditions not listed in this guide.
As budesonide medication causes a decrease in white blood cells and thereby impacts your immune power, avoid contact with sick people or being at places where the chances of catching an illness are high, like in a hospital.
Don’t take budesonide medication if you are allergic to Budesonide or already suffering from an acute asthma attack.
You must also take precautions and ask your doctor if it is safe to use Budesonide in spite of having these conditions: liver disease; herpes simplex in eyes; osteoporosis (porous bones); a bacterial, viral, or fungal infection; or tuberculosis in the past.
Interaction with other drugs
Some drugs may interact with budesonide medication like antiretroviral (nelfinavir, ritonavir); certain antibiotics (erythromycin, clarithromycin); antifungals (itraconazole or ketoconazole).
The above list is not complete, and there may be other interactions. Always tell your doctor about any medications you may use, including prescription, OTC or herbal medications. Don’t start a new drug without medical advice.
Budesonide may or may not have side effects associated with it. Many people don’t show any side effects or allergic reactions after using budesonide medication, but exceptions are always there. Contact your doctor immediately if you get any allergic reactions like hives, breathing difficulty, or swelling in the face, mouth, lips, or tongue.
You should also call your doctor or seek emergency medical help in case of these rare but serious side effects: deteriorating respiratory conditions; ear pain with fever; wheezing; tiredness; weakness; vomiting; feeling like you may faint; difficulty in vision; fat deposition changes in your body.
Budesonide has some less serious but common side effects, like white marks or sores in the mouth or on lips, headache, bleeding in the nose, sore throat, cough, sneezing, or nausea.
The side effects mentioned above are non-exhaustive, and there may be other side effects.
Use budesonide medication strictly as prescribed by your doctor. Don’t change the course or dosage in any way. All medications come with a patient leaflet. Don’t hesitate to ask your doctor or pharmacist about any doubts.
Budesonide can be taken in different forms through inhalers (respules, rotacaps), nasal spray, or oral tablets. Follow your doctor's directions or the medication labels, which are easily explained. To reduce the risk of getting a yeast infection in your mouth, rinse your mouth properly with water after budesonide inhalation.
In the case of nasal sprays, the usual dose is 1 to 4 sprays into each nostril once daily or as directed by your doctor. Shake the medicine bottle well before each use. Remember to keep all medical dispensers and pumps clean. Follow the cleaning instructions which come with the medications.
Keep using Budesonide medication regularly as prescribed. It may take up to 2 weeks before your condition improves. Contact your doctor if the original condition persists even beyond 2 weeks. Store budesonide medication in a cool and dry place. Ensure that your children or pets don’t get access to any medications.
