Cicloson Nasal Spray50mcg/Spray

Ciclesonide is used to prevent the symptoms of asthma (wheezing and shortness of breath). It is a corticosteroid and is known as a "preventer". You need to have a fast-acting “reliever” as well because this medicine will not stop an asthma attack that has already started. Your doctor will tell you how often you need to use your inhaler. It is important that you take the lowest dose needed to effectively control your asthma. The effect of this medicine may be noticeable after a few days but will only reach its maximum after a few weeks. This medicine must be used regularly to be effective, so go on taking it even if you do not have any symptoms. That means it is doing its job. If you stop taking it your asthma may get worse. It should not be used to relieve sudden asthma attacks. If an asthma attack occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler (reliever). To get the benefit from this medicine you need to make sure you get your inhaler technique right, otherwise it will not work as well. The most common side effects are hoarseness of voice, sore throat and oral infections in the mouth or throat. If you get these, do not stop taking it but do talk to your doctor. You can help prevent these symptoms by rinsing your mouth and throat with water or brushing your teeth after using your inhaler. There are other, rarer side effects which can be serious. Talk to your doctor if you are worried about them. In general, you should be trying to avoid situations which make your asthma worse (your triggers) and try not to smoke. Before taking Ciclesonide, you should tell your doctor if you have tuberculosis, any infections in your mouth or lungs, or liver disease. While taking it you may be more at risk of getting infections so stay away from people with colds and flu. If you use Ciclesonide for a long time it may cause weak bones (osteoporosis) and damage to your eyes (glaucoma or cataracts). You might need tests for bone density and eye pressure. Ask your doctor whether it is safe to take this medicine if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Ciclesonide is a steroid. It prevents the cells in the lungs and breathing passages from releasing chemical messengers that cause inflammation (swelling) of the airways. This widens the airways and makes breathing easier.

• Asthma

Ciclesonide, an inhaled corticosteriod, is converted by esterases in the lungs to the active metabolite, desisobutyryl-ciclesonide, which has anti-inflammatory activity.

No interaction found/established Ciclesonide ‘dampens down’ inflammation in the lungs to provide long-term (maintenance) treatment of asthma and prevent disease progression. Ciclesonide will not work for an ongoing asthma attack. Use your rescue inhaler to control sudden difficulty in breathing. Learn the correct technique of using metered dose inhalers (MDI) and dry powder inhalers (DPI) to ensure that the right amount of medication reaches your lungs, and side effects are minimized. Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to avoid any fungal infections in your mouth and throat. Take it at the same time every day to prevent asthma attacks. Do not open and close the cover unnecessarily as you will lose the medicine. Never breathe out into the mouthpiece. Only minuscule amounts of Ciclesonide may get absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation. Hence, serious side effects such or weight gain are unlikely.

Not for status asthmaticus or severe acute asthma where intensive measures are needed. Ciclesonide nasal spray is contraindicated in patients with a hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.

Increased ciclesonide concentrations with concomitant ketoconazole, itraconazole, ritonavir, nelfinavir or other potent CYP3A4 inhibitors.

[SAFE] Consuming alcohol with Ciclesonide does not cause any harmful side effects.

[CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR] Ciclesonide may be unsafe to use during pregnancy. Although there are limited studies in humans, animal studies have shown harmful effects on the developing baby. Your doctor will weigh the benefits and any potential risks before prescribing it to you. Please consult your doctor.

[SAFE IF PRESCRIBED] Ciclesonide is probably safe to use during breastfeeding. Limited human data suggests that the drug does not represent any significant risk to the baby.
