About BECLOMETHASONE DIPROPIONATE+LEVOSALBUTAMOL

BECLOMETHASONE DIPROPIONATE+LEVOSALBUTAMOL is a combination medicine 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.

BECLOMETHASONE DIPROPIONATE+LEVOSALBUTAMOL contains Beclomethasone Dipropionate (corticosteroids) and Levosalbutamol (bronchodilators).
