Hi. My name is Jim, I'm a Respiratory Therapy student in the US. I
pickup your message about the use of budensonide in the United States.
Well it is but it is not called Pulmacort. The brand name for this drug
in the US is Rhinocort administered as a nasal spray @ 32mcg/metered
spray. Given 2 in AM and 4 in PM. But is not indicated as an asthma
preventing corticosteroid. It is indicated only for rhinitis. Your
question on this drug, has struck and interest in me. I plan to contact
Joseph Rao, RRT PhD. He does alot of research on respiratory drugs and
Georgia State University in Atlanta, Georgia. I will drop you a line if
he offers any information that might be useful.
What area of medicine do you practice and where is your practice?
Have a good day........
