Brief Answer:
Inuver is used in Asthma Management.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting the query on HCM. After going through your query, I would like to comment the following:

1. Inuver inhaler contains Formoterol and Beclomethasone i.e. it is a combination of inhaled bronchodilator and Inhaled corticosteroid.

2. The bronchodilator i.e. Formoterol helps relieve the bronchospasm (Narrowing of airway tubes) and the corticosteroid i.e. beclomethasone helps relieve the inflammation of airways(swelling in airway tubes).

3. The inhaler is usually prescribed in twice a day dosing in Bronchial Asthma.

4. Thus Inuver is effective in Asthma.

5. However Management of Asthma needs to be individualised as per the clinical evaluation of the patient by a Pulmonologist and the severity of disease as evident on Pulmonary Function tests.

I hope I have answered your query. I will be glad to answer follow up queries if any. Please accept my answer if you have no follow up queries.
