Trade name:
Vental compositum
Compound:
Each dose contains:
Beclomethasone dipropionate 0.05 mg
Salbutamol sulfate 0.1205 mg, equivalent to pure salbutamol 0.1 mg.
Auxiliary components:

Properties:
A combination bronchodilator containing salbutamol and beclomethasone dipropionate (a corticosteroid active when used by inhalation).
Salbutamol is characterized by a fast and safe bronchodilator effect, leading to a rapid improvement in respiratory function. Salbutamol acts selectively on the bronchial muscles, without having any cardiovascular effects. In turn, beclomethasone dipropionate, due to a decrease in edema and hypersecretion in the bronchi, reduces their hyperreactivity, due to which the development of bronchospasm is gradually suppressed. Beclomethasone dipropionate acts at the level of the bronchial tree, without having systemic effects and without causing suppression of the adrenal function.
Indications:
Bronchial asthma, asthmatic bronchitis, chronic bronchitis and emphysema with an asthmatic component.
