Beclometasone
Inhaled beclometasone reduces airway inflammation and helps prevent asthma symptoms. It is a controller medicine, not a fast-acting treatment for a sudden asthma attack.
Key points
- Beclometasone works with regular use and does not replace a reliever inhaler during an acute attack.
- Correct inhaler technique and rinsing the mouth after use reduce preventable adverse effects.
- Severe breathlessness, difficulty speaking or poor response to the reliever plan needs emergency care.
Listings are for comparison only. Suitability and supply depend on clinician and pharmacy checks, stock, destination rules and prescription requirements.
What Beclometasone is used for
Inhaled beclometasone is used as preventive treatment for asthma. Different inhaler devices and strengths are not automatically interchangeable because delivery to the lungs can differ.
How it works
Beclometasone activates corticosteroid receptors in airway cells, reducing inflammation and sensitivity over time.
Important safety checks
Technique, adherence, symptom frequency and use of the reliever inhaler should be reviewed. Rinse and spit after inhalation to reduce oral thrush and hoarseness. Prolonged or higher-intensity treatment may affect adrenal function, growth, bones or eyes; do not stop suddenly without advice.
When to seek urgent care
Follow the asthma action plan and seek emergency help for severe or rapidly worsening breathlessness, inability to speak normally, blue-grey lips or skin, marked drowsiness or poor response to the prescribed reliever medicine.
