Atectura Breezhaler Information

Atectura Breezhaler (Indacaterol/Mometasone Furoate) is used to control and prevent asthma attacks. Asthma is a serious lung disease where the muscles surrounding the smaller airways become tight and inflamed. Atectura Breehaler is a combination medicine of Indacaterol and Mometasone Furoate. Bronchodilators like Indacaterol work by relaxing the muscles in the lungs' small airways to make breathing easier. Corticosteroids like Mometasone Furoate work by reducing the swelling and irritation in the small airways in the lungs to ease breathing problems gradually.
