What is Symbicort??

Symbicort is a preventer inhaler which is used to prevent asthma symptoms. It needs to be taken regularly in order to be effective even after symptoms improve. If you suffer an asthma attack you should take your reliever to relieve asthma symptoms as Symbicort is long acting but does not take immediate effect. You can buy Symbicort online at euroClinix and have the medication delivered to your door the next day without having to see your own GP, which allows you to start treatment immediately. This asthma treatment comes as a turbohaler which is ideal for people that struggle to take a traditional aerosol inhaler and get the inhaling and pressing to coincide.

Before you can buy Symbicort online at euroClinix you will first have to fill in an online consultation form. This is so that the prescribing doctor can make sure the medication is right for you. Once this has been agreed your medication will be discreetly packaged and delivered to your address the free of charge the next day if you place the order before 4:30pm.

How does Symbicort work?

Symbicort contains two active ingredients that when inhaled are able to reduce inflammation in the airways and clear them of mucus. Budesonide is a corticosteroid which is used for its inflammatory properties. Asthma is usually triggered by irritation which causes the airways to become inflamed. Budesonide can prevent this from happening reducing the need for you to take your reliever inhaler. Formoterol Fumate dehydrate is a bronchodilator which works by relaxing the muscles in the lungs which stops them from contracting when a trigger is inhaled. This keeps the airways open thus relieving asthma symptoms including coughing and breathing difficulty.

Dosages

You can buy the Symbicort Turbohaler in three different strengths: 100/6, 200/6 and 400/12. The numbers indicate the micrograms of budesonide and formoterol respectively, which are released with each dose. Your doctor will prescribe the most effective dosage for you and determine how many inhalations are necessary per day.

How to use Symbicort?

Included with the Symbicort turbohaler are a set of instructions, which can also be downloaded at the bottom of this page. Rather than having to press the canister while inhaling the turbohaler uses a twist action and a powdered form of medication. An overview of how to take Symbicort asthma treatment are as follows:

  • Remove the protective dust cap
  • Twist the red grip in both directions until it clicks
  • Inhale deeply through the mouthpiece as this will release the medication
  • Hold your breath for as long as is comfortable
  • Exhale and repeat if you have been instructed to
  • Replace dust cap
  • Rinse mouth out or brush teeth to reduce the chance of side effects

Side effects and precautions

The most common side effects can be avoided by brushing your teeth or rinsing your mouth after each use. Using Symbicort without rinsing your mouth can cause infections of the mouth and throat. Rinsing any medication away should prevent this from happening. Rare Symbicort side effects include:

Rare:
  • Heart palpitations
  • Headaches
  • Muscle cramps
  • Sleeping problems

You should not take Symbicort if you:

  • are lactose intolerant
  • allergic to any of the ingredients
  • are hypersensitive to budesonide or formoterol

You should mention any other medication you are taking including herbal supplements and over the counter medication when you fill in the online consultation form. If you show any signs of allergy to the medication including swelling around the face, lips tongue or mouth or have difficulty in breathing after taking it you should cease use immediately and seek medical attention.

How to buy Symbicort safely online?

You can buy Symbicort online at euroClinix after filling in the short, free online consultation form. This will enable the prescribing doctor to make sure the medication will not interact with any health conditions or other medication. Once this has been agreed your medication will be delivered to your address the following day.

You can use the euroClinix prescription reminder service to make sure your medication does not run out before you get chance to order. Once you have received your first inhaler you will be able to use the repeat prescription service to place future orders even faster and still benefit from the fast and free delivery service.

Note: You must complete a short online consultation so that our doctor can ensure that the treatment is suitable for you. The above pricing should only be used as a reference. The final decision to issue this treatment lies with the prescribing doctor.
