Budesonide nebulizer

Nebulizers are also known as the breathing machines that help asthma patients to directly inhale the liquid asthma medication into their lungs. Budesonide nebulizer is one such kind of device in the list. Budesonide is basically a synthetic steroid, which belongs to the family of the glucocorticoid steroids that have potent anti-inflammatory actions. The steroid has naturally-occurring hormonal actions called budesonide mimics, which are hydrocortisone produced by the adrenal glands. Budesonide nebulizer helps in controlling as well as preventing occurrence of symptoms that are usually seen in patients suffering from asthma like wheezing and shortness of breath etc.

Medication provided by budesonide nebulizer belongs to corticosteroids (a class of drugs). The medication is directly inhaled in the lungs thereby enabling the patient to breathe easily. Moreover, it helps in reducing any type of irritation and swelling of the airways. Regular use of this medication can prove to be really effective.

NOTE: This medication is not recommended to treat sudden asthma attack as it does not work immediately. Also it can be used to treat lung diseases such as bronchitis and emphysema.
