Hello.
To answer your 2 different concerns pl (without knowing why you have been prescribed budesonide for lung? Long term or short term use?).
Budesonide and arvs- since you are using darunavir/ritonavir combo along with budesonide, it would be advisable to avoid budesonide use as its level may get increased, be it in any form, inhaler or spray, by ritonavir.
The preferred alternative is beclamethasone.

The best and safest way to getting rid of your asthma is not formoteral fumerate budesonide inhaler, go and try homeopathy which will cure from the suffering were as inhaler are just bronchi dilators which primary action is bronchi dilators but secondary action it leads to severe bronchi constriction which led to again severe aggravation of your problems.

Combihale FF CFC Free 250 Inhaler may be unsafe to use during pregnancy.
Animal studies have shown adverse effects on the foetus, however, there are limited human studies. The benefits from use in pregnant women may be acceptable despite the risk. Please consult your attending gynaecologist.

It is time to review with your doctor so that you do not take any medications unnecessarily. Avoid the drug dependence by adapting healthy habits - daily breathing exercises , ( or learn yoga and pranayam ), and eat healthy food which can improve you health status ( immunity and overall well-being ).

No. It's not taken orally.
It is to be inhaled after inserting it into revolizer/ lupihalerhaler device.
You can learn the technique of "how to take it" by watching the video on YouTube.

Dear Mr. lybrate-user, budesonide is a steroid and to be used very cautiously. It cannot be taken in steam form. It is either used an inhaler/ nebulizer/ oral tablet or as an injection. Not all covid patients need steroids. They can as easily cause more damage and therefore best leave this decision to your doctor / pulmonologist who is treating you for covid symptoms.
Best wishes.

Long acting bronchodilator helps to control asthma for 12 hrs with each puff so better to take formoterol budesonide twice a day followed by gargles.

Dear lybrate-user, to have concentration in studies, you should be interested in it. Instead, you are interested in whatsup and facebook. Be passionate towards education. Take care.
