Clenil Modulite is a corticosteroid asthma inhaler (usually just called a steroid inhaler) that prevents daily asthma symptoms such as wheezing and shortness of breath.
It’s used to treat mild, moderate, or severe asthma and contains the active ingredient beclometasone dipropionate. You can raise or lower your dose as you need - a clinician can advise you where to start. Steroid inhalers are for people who want to keep daily asthma symptoms under control and need more than a reliever to feel comfortable.
How do Clenil inhalers work?
Asthma is a condition that inflames the lungs, making it difficult to breathe properly. It’s fairly common (around 5.4 million people in the UK receive treatment for it) and usually starts from a young age. Although it affects people to different extents, the symptoms are often the same for everyone that has it. Wheezing, or feeling chesty, is the most recognisable sign that your airways are inflamed and need to be treated.
Steroid inhalers reduce this inflammation and allow you to breathe more comfortably. Clenil Modulite is a steroid inhaler that you take regularly to help control asthma. When you take it, you’ll also need to carry a second inhaler (called a reliever) in case you get symptoms or have an asthma attack.
What kind of inhaler is Clenil Modulite?
Steroid inhalers are often referred to as ‘brown inhalers’. The colour of your inhaler will depend on the dose you choose, but this term is often used to distinguish preventer inhalers from the typically blue relievers.
Brown inhalers, or preventers, work by improving your reactions to asthma triggers. Clenil Modulite will stop your airways from swelling and keep your inflammation down, allowing your breathing to stay relaxed. This will help you do everyday tasks much easier, and it can improve your ability to exercise. Maybe most importantly, it’ll help you get a restful night’s sleep.
Which dose of Clenil inhaler is best for me?
We offer Clenil Modulite in three different strengths: 100mcg, 200mcg and 250mcg.
Our experts can help you choose which dose is best for you depending on how much your asthma symptoms are bothering you.
It’s important you stick to the suggested dose and see if things improve. If you feel like you need more, or less, you can switch doses easily with the help of our clinicians. Asthma affects people differently so it’s common to make adjustments to your treatment.

How to use your Clenil Modulite
Your inhaler will work best if you’re using it properly. If you have any questions about how to use it, just ask a clinician.
To use your Clenil Modulite:
Remove the mouthpiece cover by squeezing it gently. Make sure it’s clean. You can test to see if it’s working by releasing a puff into the air.
Hold the inhaler upright, with your thumb on the base. Breathe out as far as you can.
Close your lips around the mouthpiece, making sure you don’t bite it.
Breathe in slowly and deeply. Press down on the inhaler to release a puff.
Hold your breath for as long as is comfortable. You can take the inhaler from your mouth. Breathe out slowly.
If you’re having another puff, wait for a minute and then repeat steps 2-5.
Replace the mouthpiece so the inhaler stays dust-free for next time.
What if I forget to use my Clenil inhaler?
We always recommend taking your inhaler as prescribed, as Clenil works best when taken consistently. If you do forget to take a puff for any reason, don’t worry – there’s no need to try and make up for a missed dose. Just make sure you take the next one and continue your usual routine.
How do I know if I’m on the right dose of Clenil?
Your Clenil Modulite inhaler will take a few days to start working. Brown inhalers work by building up protection over time until your asthma is under control. It’s best to carry on using your inhaler daily even when you’re feeling better, as it means Clenil is helping you.
You can use a peak flow meter to keep an eye on your symptoms, and our clinicians will keep in touch to see how you’re getting on. If you want to change your dose, or even your asthma medication, just let us know.

FAQ: Clenil Modulite
Have something specific you want to know? Search our info below, or ask our experts a question if you can’t find what you’re looking for.
How does Clenil Modulite relieve my asthma symptoms?
Answer:
If you suffer from asthma, you’ll need to keep on top of your symptoms every day.
Steroid inhalers work by closely replicating the natural hormones found in your adrenal glands. They don’t contain the same steroids bodybuilders use (anabolic steroids), and instead work by releasing a small anti-inflammatory medicine into your lungs.
Steroid inhalers are often used to keep asthma under control, and the beclometasone dipropionate in Clenil will do exactly that. Our clinicians can help you decide how much you need to put you at ease.
How are Clenil inhalers different from other asthma treatments?
Answer:
You can manage your asthma in a variety of ways. Tablets like Montelukast prevent allergenic asthma triggers, such as dust and hayfever, but clinical observations have found inhaled corticosteroids to be the most effective controllers of asthma. The active ingredient in Clenil Modulite (beclometasone dipropionate) is also available in other preventer inhalers, such as Soprobec, Easyhaler Beclometasone, or combo inhalers such as Fostair.
What sets Clenil Modulite apart is the dose range – the highest dose of 250 micrograms means you can easily up your dose, rather than switch inhalers, if your asthma symptoms are severe.
Can Clenil Modulite cause side effects?
Answer:
Most asthma inhalers can cause side effects, but they’re usually nothing to worry about. Sometimes people report a hoarse voice or a sore throat after using their inhaler, and occasionally oral thrush. Both can be avoided by rinsing your mouth after each go.
Using a volumatic spacer can also help prevent this, and might also make using the Clenil Modulite inhaler more effective. If you’re worried about anything else, our experts can answer any side-effects questions you might have.
What does Modulite mean?
Answer:
Modulite is the name of Clenil’s innovative inhaler design.
Traditionally designed inhalers tend to offer a short pressurized burst of medication in a fast moving cloud. This cloud is often inhaled poorly, and the dose intended for your lungs instead gets caught in your mouth or throat. Poor inhalation makes it hard to ensure you’re getting the right amount of medication, with no guarantee it’s working effectively.
The Clenil Modulite inhaler addresses this problem by offering a highly efficient, refined design that releases your medicine in a slow moving cloud. With a more targeted approach, generated over a longer period of time, Clenil Modulite is designed to reach the parts of your lung that need targeting. This makes it a powerful, highly effective asthma medication.
Can I change my Clenil dosage?
Answer:
You can change your Clenil dose if you need to, on the advice of a clinician. You’ll normally do this if your asthma is well-controlled for a long time (in which case you’ll lower the dose) or if you feel like you need more control (in which case you’ll raise the dose). Clenil Modulite is available in three different doses, so if you feel like you need to change your inhaler, our experts can help.
Why should I buy Clenil Modulite with Treated?

Managing your daily asthma symptoms can be tricky without the right advice. We can help you find a treatment plan that suits your lifestyle, and by talking to an expert you can make the best choice.
