How It works
BECLATE 200 ROTACAP is an inhalational corticosteroid. It blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the airways (such as histamines, prostaglandins, leukotrienes) that cause allergic reaction, inflammation and swelling. It also reduces the over activity of the certain immune cells (such as mast cells, eosinophils) in the airway tract. As a result, it reduces airway inflammation, allows the air to pass through more freely through the airways and makes breathing easier.
What if you forget to take?
If you miss a dose of Beclate 200 Rotacaps, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
