Aerocort Forte Rotacaps is a combination medication used to treat asthma. Asthma is a respiratory condition caused by hypersensitive airways, which become inflamed, swollen and filled with mucous, making breathing difficult. Symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, and cough.
Aerocort Forte Rotacaps contains Beclomethasone dipropionate (corticosteroid) and Levosalbutamol sulphate (bronchodilator). Beclomethasone dipropionate works by preventing the release of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammatory reactions. Levosalbutamol sulphate works by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Thereby, Aerocort Forte Rotacaps makes breathing easier.
