Should Pulmicort Be Given with a Bronchodilator?

As with other inhaled asthma medications, bronchospasm, with an immediate increase in wheezing, may occur after dosing. If acute bronchospasm occurs following dosing with PULMICORT RESPULES, it should be treated immediately with a fast-acting inhaled bronchodilator.

Can Pulmicort and albuterol be given together?

The prescribing information for Pulmicort® inhalation suspensions (brand of budesonide) states that the inhalation suspension can be mixed with other inhalation solutions (e.g. terbutaline, albuterol, cromolyn, ipratropium).

Which nebulizer medications can be mixed?

Admixtures of albuterol with ipratropium and/or cromolyn, of albuterol and budesonide, or tobramycin, or colistin are physico-chemically compatible.
