About Formoprl-F 125 Inhaler

Formoprl-F 125 Inhaler is used to treat and prevent asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms.

Formoprl-F 125 Inhaler contains Formoterol fumarate, a bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles to improve airflow, and Fluticasone propionate, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways. Together, they help ease breathing and control symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
