How Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules 2 ML Works?

Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules contains budesonide (0.5 MG), which works on your body as follows:

Binds to glucocorticoid receptors: Budesonide attaches itself to specific proteins called glucocorticoid receptors found within the cells of your lungs.
Inhibits release of inflammatory mediators: Following the binding process, budesonide suppresses the release of substances that cause inflammation.
Reduces mucus secretion: This medicine decreases the production of mucus in your airways, helping you breathe more easily.
Decreases airway hyperresponsiveness: Budesonide reduces sensitivity and allergic reactions in your airways, preventing them from narrowing during an asthma attack.

Interactions of Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules 2 ML

Drug-Drug Interactions

Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules interacts with the following medicines:

Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors: Medicines such as ketoconazole and ritonavir can increase the concentration of budesonide in your body, potentially amplifying its effects and side effects.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no specific food items that interact with Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules interacts with the following diseases:

Tuberculosis: If you have active or dormant tuberculosis, this medicine could potentially worsen your condition due to its immunosuppressive properties.
Viral, fungal, bacterial infections: As Nebzmart can mask signs of infection and suppress your immune response, new infections may be hard to diagnose and could potentially get worse.
Ocular herpes simplex: Caution is required if you have ocular herpes simplex as corticosteroids like budesonide can prolong or exacerbate the condition.
Bone density reduction: Long-term use can lead to decreased bone mineral density, a concern especially if you already have osteoporosis or other bone-related diseases.
Adrenal suppression: Budesonide can suppress the adrenal glands' function over time, affecting your body's ability to respond to stress. This is particularly relevant if you have an adrenal disorder.

Daily Dose

Your daily dose of Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules should be taken as your doctor prescribes depending on how severe your condition is and your response to the medication. Always follow your doctor's instructions and never exceed the prescribed dosage without consulting them.

Over Dose

Missed Dose

If you forget to take Nebzmart 0.5 MG Respules at the scheduled time, take it as soon as you remember. But if it's nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose without your doctor's advice.
