Hi There

Foradil is a name for formoterol, and usually comes under the branding of Foradil Aerolizer.

Foradil is a long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes muscles in the airways to improve breathing.

Foradil is used to prevent bronchospasm in people with reversible obstructive airways disease, including symptoms of night-time asthma. It is also used in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis.

I hope this answers youre question!
