Ciclesonide is an inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), recommended in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) indication to get relief from difficulty in breathing, chest tightness, wheezing, and coughing. Inhaled drugs including inhaled corticosteroids, long acting β2 adrenoceptor agonists (LABA), and long acting muscarinic receptor antagonists (LAMA) are important treatment regime in the management of COPD. Inhaled corticosteroids are generally considered as safe and well tolerated in both adults and children. The improved safety and comparable efficacy profiles of ciclesonide demonstrated a potential treatment option which may lead to improved adherence and treatment outcome in asthma and COPD.
However, some of the studies raised concerns regarding increased risk of pneumonia related to regular use of ICS in adult patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A study findings published in the Respirology Journal: 2013, revealed an increased risk of oropharyngeal colonization by Streptococcus pneumoniae in children with asthma regularly taking ICS. This could potentially lead to restrict application of ciclesonide by patients during the forecast period.
