Safely Buy Qvar Redihaler ( Beclometasone Dipropionate ) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Indications

Qvar Redihaler is an asthma medication used to prevent asthma attacks in adults and children over the age of 4.

Beclometasone dipropionate is an inhaled corticosteroid that improves asthma symptoms and prevents attacks by reducing inflammation in your airways. The drug inhibits inflammatory cells and mediators which allows Qvar Redihaler to support pulmonary function.

This inhaled asthma medication is a safe and effective treatment for symptoms of asthma in both adults and children. The Qvar Redihaler has been found to be well-tolerated with a low incidence of adverse events. Thanks to beclometasone dipropionate’s potent anti-inflammatory properties, this medication can be taken in convenient twice daily doses.

Cautions

Qvar Redihaler is designed to reduce symptoms and prevent asthma attacks. Beclometasone dipropionate will not work fast enough to treat an asthma attack that has already begun; fast-acting rescue medicine should only be used to treat active attacks.

Seek immediate medical attention if your breathing problems quickly worsen or if you think your asthma medication is not working as well.

Avoid getting the Qvar Redihaler mist in your eyes. If contact occurs, rinse with water.

Avoid being near sick or infected people because steroid medications can make conditions like chickenpox or measles serious. Contact your doctor for preventive treatment if you are exposed to an illness or disease.

To ensure your safety when taking Qvar Redihaler, tell your doctor if you have ever had any of the following:

• Any bacterial, fungal, or viral infection
• Tuberculosis
• Ocular herpes infection
• Osteoporosis or low bone mineral density
• Weakened immune system
• Cataracts, glaucoma, or increased eye pressure

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using Qvar Redihaler to ensure the safety of you and your baby during treatment.

Some drugs may interact with beclometasone dipropionate and cause unwanted reactions. To avoid this, tell your doctor about all the medications that you take, including over the counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products.
