Usage Guidelines

Inhale 1 rotacap or 1 to 2 puffs once or twice daily as directed using the inhalation device. Rinse mouth thoroughly with water and spit out if combination contains ciclesonide.

General Administration Advice: Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and treatment course. For oral medications, swallow with sufficient water. Never stop antibiotics, psychiatric medications, or antihypertensives abruptly without clinical direction.

Possible Side Effects

Common: Dry mouth (common, resolves with continued use), pharyngitis, cough, headache, tremor, constipation. Rare/Severe: Paradoxical bronchospasm, acute urinary retention, and angle-closure glaucoma.

*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.

Precautions & Warnings

Do not swallow capsules. Avoid spraying or inhaling powder near the eyes (can precipitate acute narrow-angle glaucoma). Caution in patients with bladder neck obstruction or prostatic hypertrophy.
