Aerocort Forte Rotacaps

Description

Aerocort Forte Rotacaps contain salbutamol (albuterol) and beclometasone, a combination of a bronchodilator and an inhaled corticosteroid used to help manage breathing symptoms associated with asthma and certain obstructive airway conditions.

Salbutamol helps relax the muscles around the airways, making breathing easier, while beclometasone helps reduce inflammation and swelling in the airways. Aerocort Forte Rotacaps should be used only as directed by a qualified healthcare professional.
