Pharmacology
Budesonide is a synthetic corticosteroid having potent glucocorticoid activity and weak mineralocorticoid activity. It has approximately a 200-fold higher affinity for the glucocorticoid receptor and a 1000-fold higher topical anti-inflammatory potency than cortisol. Corticosteroids have been shown to have a wide range of inhibitory activities against multiple cell types (e.g., mast cell, eosinophil, neutrophil, macrophage, and lymphocyte) and mediators (e.g., histamine, eicosanoids, leukotriene, and cytokine) involved in allergic mediated inflammation.

Sneezing, headache, sore throat, dry mouth, nausea etc. have been reported as the common side effects
Pregnancy And Lactation
Pregnancy: There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Budesonide nebuliser suspension, like other corticosteroids, should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Lactation: It is not known whether Budesonide is excreted in human milk. Because other corticosteroids are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when Budesonide nebuliser suspension is administered to nursing women.
