The corticosteroids that doctors most often prescribe for COPD are:

• Fluticasone (Flovent). This comes as an inhaler you use twice daily.
• Budesonide (Pulmicort). This comes as a handheld inhaler or for use in a nebulizer.
• Prednisolone. This comes as a pill, liquid, or shot.

For most people with COPD, short-acting bronchodilator inhalers are the first treatment used. Bronchodilators are medicines that make breathing easier by relaxing and widening your airways.
