What is Alvesco ?
Alvesco (ciclesonide) is an inhaled corticosteroid used primarily to control and prevent the symptoms of asthma in adults and children aged 12 years and older. It works by reducing inflammation in the lungs, improving breathing and minimizing the frequency of asthma attacks. Ciclesonide is administered through an inhaler and is often used as a long-term treatment option in managing persistent asthma.
