Formoterol brand name?

What brand names is formoterol sold under?

Formoterol is a long-acting bronchodilator (a LABA) used for asthma and COPD. Brand names depend on the country and whether it’s the dry powder inhaler (DPI) or the inhaler solution.

Commonly seen brand names for formoterol include:
- Foradil (formoterol fumarate; DPI) [1]
- Oxis (formoterol; available in some markets, including as an inhaler combination product) [2]

Is formoterol sold as a single drug or in combination inhalers?

Formoterol is often marketed both as:
- A standalone inhaler/solution (formoterol alone), and
- A combination product paired with an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) such as budesonide (exact brands vary by market).

Because branding is location-specific, the exact name can differ even for the same active ingredient [1][2].

How can I find the exact brand name for my country?

Check the label for the active ingredient (it should say “formoterol” or “formoterol fumarate”), then look up that ingredient on your local pharmacy or regulator’s medicine directory. Brand names are not consistent worldwide, but the active ingredient is.

If you tell me your country and whether your device is a powder inhaler or an inhaler solution, I can narrow down the likely brand(s).
