About QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR is a respiratory medication, primarily used to treat and prevent asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (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.

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR is a combination of two medicines, namely: Formoterol (bronchodilator) and Fluticasone (corticosteroids). Formoterol is a long-acting beta-agonist that relaxes the muscles in the airways and increases airflow to the lungs. Formoterol makes breathing easier by widening the airways. Fluticasone acts by blocking prostaglandin's production (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.

Your doctor will advise on how often you take QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR based on your medical condition. The common side effects of QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR include nausea, vomiting, respiratory tract infection, headache, sore throat, cough, bone, muscle or joint pain, increased heart rate, chills, tiredness and noisy breathing. Most of these side effects of QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not use QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR to treat sudden severe symptoms of asthma or as a rescue inhaler. Brief your medical history if you have heart, liver, kidney diseases, high blood pressure, hypokalaemia (low potassium levels in the blood), aneurysm (swelling of an artery), pheochromocytoma (adrenal gland tumor), hyperadrenocorticism (high levels of cortisol), cataract and glaucoma, chickenpox or measles, immune system problem, seizure (fits), osteoporosis, and diabetes before taking QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR.

FAQs

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR is used to treat and prevent respiratory disorders like asthma attacks and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR consists of Formoterol (bronchodilator) and Fluticasone (Fluticasone). Formoterol relaxes the muscles in the airways and increases airflow to the lungs. Fluticasone acts by blocking prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers) that cause inflammation (swelling) of the airways.

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR should be cautiously administered under doctor's guidance in seizures since bronchodilators like Formoterol can cause central nervous system stimulation that can lead to other adverse conditions. Please consult your doctor before using QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR if you have seizures.

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR contains bronchodilator (Fluticasone), which can cause a rise in blood glucose levels. Hence therapy with QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR is cautiously administered in patients with diabetes. Please monitor your blood glucose levels regularly and inform your doctor so that the dose can be adjusted accordingly.

Bronchodilator (Formoterol) in QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR may decrease the potassium levels in your body, therefore should be used with caution. Please consult your doctor before taking QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR since low potassium levels can lead to other cardiovascular problems in patients with hypokalaemia.

Take the missed dose as soon as possible. However, if it is time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule.

Formoterol in QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR may cause dry mouth as a temporary side effect in some people. It is not necessary for everyone taking QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR to experience this side effect. However, to avoid such side effects, drink plenty of water, regularly rinse your mouth, practice good oral hygiene and suck on a sugarless candy. However, if the condition persists or worsens, please consult a doctor.

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR is not recommended for use when you are taking Sotalol or vice versa. Sotalol and QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR have opposing effects in the body. Sotalol may also trigger asthma attacks or worsen your breathing problems by narrowing the airways. Please consult your doctor before using other medicines with QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR.

QUIKHALE FF 250MCG INHALAR is not used for sudden breathing problems; your doctor may suggest a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems.

The symptoms of mild persistent asthma may occur more than 2 times in a week and up to 4 nights in a month whereas, in case of severe persistent asthma, the symptoms occur several times every day and most nights. The treatment for asthma includes medication, breathing exercises and self-care.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): It is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes). The major cause of COPD is smoking tobacco. Also, long-term exposure to fumes and chemicals may lead to COPD. The symptoms include chronic cough, shortness of breath or wheezing (whistle sound while breathing).
