Uses

Foracort Rotacaps 400 is a combination medication for treating obstructive airways disease, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (at the lower dose of 200/6). This combination therapy is used for long-term management of asthma, where symptoms are not adequately controlled using a single “preventer” medication but have improved when both medications in this combination have been used together. Foracort Rotacaps 400 is intended to be used even when there are no symptoms, as part of long-term maintenance therapy, with additional use of a fast-acting reliever medication, as needed.
