Overview
Dulera is a prescription drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for maintenance treatment of asthma for people age 5 and older. Dulera is not indicated for rescue usage during acute bronchospasms.

Dulera is a combination drug containing both Mometasone and Formoterol. Mometasone is a glucocorticoid steroid, a drug that suppresses the immune system. Mometasone is believed to work by reducing inflammation in the lungs, lowering the risk of bronchospasm. Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator, a drug that dilates the bronchi and bronchioles in the lungs, making it easier to breathe. Formoterol is believed to work by relaxing smooth muscles in the airways.

How do I take it?
Dulera is inhaled orally twice a day.
Dulera comes in an aerosol inhaler.
