Symbicort generic name?

Symbicort is the brand name for a combination inhaler that contains two active ingredients:

| Component | Generic name | Formulation in Symbicort |
|-----------|--------------|---------------------------|
| Inhaled steroid | Budesonide | 200 µg per actuation |
| Long‑acting β₂‑agonist | Formoterol fumarate | 6.4 µg per actuation |

So the generic name for Symbicort is budesonide/formoterol fumarate (the two drugs together). In many countries you’ll see it marketed under other brand names (e.g., Advair in the U.S. for the same combination), but the underlying active substances are budesonide and formoterol fumarate.
