Foracort Forte Inhaler is a combination of Formoterol (a long-acting bronchodilator) and Budesonide (a steroid) designed to treat and prevent asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and reducing inflammation, making breathing easier. Learn more from FDA and WebMD.
