About Combihale FF 250 Redicaps

Combihale FF 250 Redicaps is used to treat and prevent asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), like bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes) and emphysema (shortness of breath). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs.

Combihale FF 250 Redicaps is a combination of two medicines: Formoterol (bronchodilator) and Fluticasone (corticosteroid). Formoterol is a long-acting beta-agonist that relaxes the muscles in the airways, thereby increasing airflow to the lungs. Formoterol makes breathing easier by widening the airways. Fluticasone acts by blocking the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that cause inflammation (swelling) of the airways. Thereby, it provides relief from sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and sinus discomfort. It helps to prevent asthma attacks in adults and children.
