About Derinide 200 mcg Respicaps

Derinide 200 mcg Respicaps belongs to the class of medicines called 'glucocorticosteroids' used to relieve symptoms of asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). 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. 

Derinide 200 mcg Respicaps contains ‘Budesonide’. It works by blocking the making of certain chemical messengers that are involved in allergic and non-allergic-mediated inflammation.
