How does Clenil work?
The active ingredient of Clenil Inhaler is Beclometasone dipropionate, which belongs to a corticosteroid group (also referred to as a simple steroid). When the active ingredient of the Clenil inhaler reaches the lungs through inhalation, it helps reduce inflammation and swelling in the airways.
When used daily, it helps decrease inflammation and helps in the following conditions:
- Keep the airways open and clear, which allows air to move more freely in and out of the lungs.
- Lower the sensitivity of the airways to common asthma triggers. These triggers can be allergens, exercise, environmental pollutants, cold air, stress, and infections.
- Prevent the frequency of asthma attacks when used daily or as prescribed.
It is very important to note that the Clenil inhaler does not work or remove asthma symptoms instantly. But it will show improvement within a few days of use. Moreover, for complete benefits to develop time of 1–2 weeks of regular use is required. However, it is recommended to carry an instant inhaler reliever like Ventolin to get instant relief.
