Duomate Transhaler

Duomate Transhaler is a combination of medication primarily used to prevent and treat symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) like shortness of breath or wheezing (whistling sound while breathing). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Duomate Transhaler is a combination of two drugs, namely: Beclometasone (corticosteroid) and Formoterol (bronchodilator). Beclometasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids that works by acting inside cells of the airways/nasal lining and stops the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions. Thereby, provides relief from sneezing, runny or blocked nose, and sinus discomfort. Formoterol belongs to the class of bronchodilators that works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Thus, it makes breathing easier.

Duomate Transhaler is for inhalation only. Take Duomate Transhaler by inhaling the number of puffs as advised by your doctor. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Duomate Transhaler based on your medical condition. Some people may experience fungal infection in the mouth, headache, sore throat, runny nose, hoarse voice, irritation in the nose or sinus pain. Most of these side effects of Duomate Transhaler do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Duomate Transhaler or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before using Duomate Transhaler. Duomate Transhaler is not recommended for children below 18 years of age. You are advised not to take more than 8 puffs in a day. If you experience severe difficulty in breathing or worsening asthma symptoms, please consult a doctor immediately so that alternative medicine may be prescribed. Contact your doctor if you have blurred vision or any other vision disturbances while taking Duomate Transhaler. Regular monitoring of potassium levels is recommended while taking Duomate Transhaler as it may cause low potassium levels in the blood. If you are about to take any anesthesia, please inform your doctor that you are using Duomate Transhaler as you may need to stop using Duomate Transhaler for a minimum of 12 hours before anesthesia. If you have high blood pressure, diabetes, chest or lungs infection, hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid gland), irregular heart rate, arteriosclerosis (narrowing of the arteries), hypokalaemia (low potassium levels in the blood), glaucoma, cataracts, osteoporosis (weak bones), tuberculosis, heart, liver, kidney or adrenal gland problems, inform your doctor before taking Duomate Transhaler.
