What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

    Description

    Qvar Easi Breathe Inhaler Uses:

    Qvar Easi Breathe

    Qavr Easi-Breathe also known as Beclometasone Dipropionate belongs to the group of medication known as corticosteroids. Corticosteroids are steroids that are used for treating patients with asthma. These anti-inflammatory drugs work by reducing the inflammation and swelling of airways and reduce the mucus production as well. This means that the airways are less inflamed and are less likely to react to any asthma trigger giving patients better control over their condition.

    Qavr Easi Breathe is used for preventing mild, moderate, and severe symptoms of asthma. For people who require regular treatment for their asthma, this medication helps in making breathing easier. This medication works deep into the lungs and makes it easier to breathe. It is a prevention medication. Therefore, it needs to be taken on a daily basis, even if there are no symptoms. It is available for purchase online at Canada Pharmacy. You can have your order delivered directly to your doorstep without hassle.

    You must take this medication exactly how it is prescribed to you. The usual dosage is:

    • For mild asthma 1 to 2 puffs twice a day
    • For moderate asthma 2 to 4 puffs a day
    • For severe asthma 4 to 8 puffs a day

    Your doctor will prescribe you the dosage considering your symptoms. Adults and children above 12 years can use this medication. After using this medication rinse your mouth properly.

    The medication is inhaled through the mouth into the lungs. You have to first prime the inhaler before using it for the first time, or if you're using it for an extended period. Fire two shots into the air before you use it. Remove the cap and place the inhaler mouthpiece in the mouth and close your lips around it. Take slow and deep breaths through the mouthpiece. Do not stop breathing when the dose is delivered. This ensures that you receive the majority of the medicine. Clean the mouthpiece every week with clean, dry tissue or a cloth.
