Inhaler = pressurised aerosol (100 or 200 mcg\/puff, slow-deep inhalation). Rotacaps = dry powder (100\/200\/400 mcg per cap, fast-forceful inhalation, requires Rotahaler device). Choice depends on coordination, age, and inspiratory flow.<\/p>\n<h3>How forceful does the inhalation need to be?<\/h3>\n<p>Strong and fast \u2014 \u226530 L\/min, ideally 60. Children under 6, severe acute attacks, and very frail adults may not generate enough flow \u2014 use Budecort Inhaler with spacer or Budecort Respules instead.<\/p>\n<h3>Why no taste from a Budecort rotacap?<\/h3>\n<p>Budesonide is nearly tasteless. Confirm the rotacap is empty after inhaling \u2014 if powder remains, repeat the breath.<\/p>\n<h3>How quickly does Budecort start working?<\/h3>\n<p>Some effect within days; substantial benefit by 1 week; full preventer effect by 1\u20132 weeks of consistent twice-daily use.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I take Budecort Rotacaps once a day?<\/h3>\n<p>Twice-daily dosing is standard. Some patients with mild stable asthma may go to once-daily under medical guidance \u2014 but most do better with consistent BD.<\/p>\n<h3>Is Budecort safe long-term?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, at standard doses. High cumulative doses can slightly raise risk of cataracts, easy bruising, mild adrenal suppression \u2014 controlled by using the lowest effective dose and reviewing every 6\u201312 months.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I share my Rotahaler with a family member?<\/h3>\n<p>No \u2014 the mouthpiece harbours bacteria and viruses. Each person should have their own.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I clean the Rotahaler?<\/h3>\n<p>Wipe the mouthpiece with a dry tissue weekly. Do not wash with water \u2014 moisture damages the device.<\/p>\n<h3>Why is rinsing my mouth so important?<\/h3>\n<p>Inhaled corticosteroid that deposits in the mouth and throat can grow Candida (oral thrush) and cause dysphonia (hoarse voice). Rinsing, gargling, and spitting out drops both side-effect rates by more than half.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:14px 18px;margin:24px
