<p>Beclometasone 50, 100 &amp; 250 HFA Inhaler is indicated in the prophylactic management of mild, moderate, or severe asthma in adults or children. Beclometasone dipropionate given by inhalation offers preventative treatment for asthma. It provides effective anti-inflammatory action in the lungs with a lower incidence and severity of adverse effects than those observed when corticosteroids are administered systemically.<br />
<br />
<strong>Mild asthma</strong>: Patients requiring symptomatic bronchodilator asthma medication on a regular basis.<br />
<br />
<strong>Moderate asthma</strong>: Patients with unstable or worsening asthma despite prophylactic therapy or bronchodilator alone.<br />
<br />
<strong>Severe asthma</strong>: Patients with severe chronic asthma and those who are dependent on systemic corticosteroids for adequate control of symptoms. Many patients who are dependent on systemic corticosteroids for adequate control of symptoms may be able to reduce significantly, or eliminate, their requirement for oral corticosteroids when they are transferred to high dose inhaled beclometasone dipropionate.</p>
