➡️ What are Inhaled Corticosteroids?
Inhaled Corticosteroids are a type of medication that is often used to treat patients with Asthma and COPD. Glucocorticoids are lipid-soluble drugs that provide anti-inflammatory effects on the airways. They are considered to be maintenance or controller medications because they work by decreasing inflammation seen in obstructive diseases. With that said, they are not to be used during an acute attack or exacerbation because they do not provide immediate relief.
➡️ Examples of Inhaled Corticosteroids:
▪ Budesonide (Pulmicort)
▪ Beclomethasone (QVAR)
▪ Fluticasone propionate (Flovent)
▪ Ciclesonide (Alvesco)
▪ Flunisolide hemihydrate (AeroSpan)
▪ Fluticasone furoate (Arnuity Ellipta)
▪ Mometasone furoate (Asmanex)
Keep in mind that other inhaled corticosteroids may exist. These are just a few of the most common examples. Also, we'll be breaking down each one individually in separate videos, so definitely be sure to subscribe if you haven't done so already.
➡️ Side Effects of Inhaled Corticosteroids:
▪ Cough
▪ Sore throat
▪ Difficulty speaking
▪ Bronchoconstriction
▪ Oral fungal infection (thrush)
➡️ Why is Mouth Rinsing so Important?
Oral thrush is a fungal infection that can occur in the mouth after an inhaled corticosteroid has been given. Thankfully, it can be avoided simply by rinsing out the mouth with water after use. So, with that said, as a Respiratory Therapist, it’s important to instruct your patient to always rinse out their mouth after using an inhaled corticosteroid medication in order to prevent oral thrush.
