Foradil Inhaler (active ingredient: formoterol fumarate) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Foradil Inhaler is used to help manage symptoms of COPD, such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and chronic cough.
  2. Asthma: It is also indicated for the maintenance treatment of asthma to prevent symptoms such as wheezing and breathlessness.

Foradil Inhaler belongs to a class of drugs known as long-acting beta-agonists (LABAs), which work by relaxing the muscles of the airways to improve airflow and make breathing easier.

Foradil comes in a capsule, but it is not to swallow these capsules by mouth. Inhale the contents of the capsule by mouth using the inhaler device as directed by your doctor, usually one capsule twice daily (morning and evening, about 12 hours apart). Remember to use the new inhaler device that comes with each refill and discard the old one. Do not use a “spacer” device with the inhaler.

Before use, keep the capsule sealed in its foil packet. Wash your hands and make sure they are completely dry before handling the capsules. When using Foradil, inhale rapidly and deeply through the mouthpiece, and be sure to open the inhaler after use to check that the capsule is empty. Do not exhale into the inhaler.

If you are using Foradil to prevent exercise-induced breathing problems, use it at least 15 minutes before exercising, and do not use any more doses of formoterol for the next 12 hours. Also, make sure your asthma is stable (not worsening) before starting treatment with formoterol. If you are using other inhalers, wait at least 1 minute between the uses of each medication. Consult your doctor for more details.

Take Foradil exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
