Why is Qvar Redihaler prescribed?

Qvar Redihaler (Beclomethasone) is an oral inhalational medication used to prevent symptoms of asthma in adults and children five years and older.

What does it do?

Asthma is a condition wherein the airway narrows and swells, producing the symptoms like chest tightness, coughing, difficulty of breathing, and wheezing. Qvar Redihaler is a type of corticosteroid that works by decreasing irritation and swelling of the airways to normalize breathing.

How should I use it?

Qvar Redihaler is currently available in 40mcg and 80mcg inhaler. Each type of inhaler has its set of instructions regarding its usage, priming, and cleaning. Make sure to follow the directions and ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.

The dosage strength depends on every patient’s condition and the doctor’s prescription. It is imperative that you do not self-medicate and only use this drug after consulting with your doctor or pharmacist to determine the best dosage and dosing schedule for the treatment of your condition.

What if I missed a dose?

Taking the dose properly at the scheduled time is needed to attain the desired effect of the drug. If you forgot to take your medicine, immediately take the next dose to make up for the missed dose. However, if it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and catch the next dose at the regular time. Never take two doses just to make up for your missed dose.

What are the special precautions before using Qvar Redihaler?

Keep in mind that Qvar Redihaler is NOT an emergency medicine for acute attacks of asthma. Do not use near an open flame or any source that produces heat.
