Symbicort package size?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Symbicort

What Symbicort package sizes are commonly sold?

Symbicort comes as an inhaler in different strengths (budesonide/formoterol). The two most common package sizes you’ll see in typical retail/US distribution are inhalers supplied as either 60 doses or 120 doses (per canister), depending on the product strength and prescription format.

Does the dose strength change the package size (60 vs 120)?

Yes. For Symbicort, the “package size” you’ll notice on the box is usually described as the number of inhalations/doses per inhaler (most often 60 or 120). The corticosteroid/long-acting bronchodilator strength (the budesonide-formoterol combination) determines which presentation you’re getting, so you may see different dose counts across strengths.

How can I confirm the exact package size on my product?

Check the label or box for:
- the number of inhalations/doses (for example, 60 or 120)
- the strength (budesonide/formoterol, such as the commonly prescribed microgram combinations)
- the “actuation count” listed for the inhaler

If you share the exact strength written on your Symbicort (e.g., “80/4.5” or “160/4.5”) and whether it says 60 or 120 on the box, I can help interpret it.
