Description

Salmeterol (25mcg) + Fluticasone Propionate (250mcg), marketed under the brand name Seroflo, is a combination inhaler used for the long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Here’s a detailed description along with key features, usage instructions, precautions, and potential side effects:

Seroflo inhaler combines two active ingredients: Salmeterol, a long-acting beta agonist (LABA), and Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid. Salmeterol works by relaxing the muscles in the airways, thereby making breathing easier, while Fluticasone Propionate reduces inflammation in the airways, helping to prevent asthma attacks and COPD exacerbations.

Key Features:

  1. Combination Therapy: Seroflo inhaler provides the benefits of both a long-acting bronchodilator (Salmeterol) and an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid (Fluticasone Propionate) in a single device.
  2. Long-Lasting Relief: Salmeterol provides bronchodilation that lasts for up to 12 hours, offering sustained relief from symptoms of asthma and COPD.
  3. Preventative Action: Fluticasone Propionate helps to prevent airway inflammation, reducing the frequency and severity of asthma attacks and COPD exacerbations.

Usage Instructions:

  • Shake the Seroflo inhaler well before each use.
  • Remove the cap and hold the inhaler upright.
  • Exhale fully, then place the mouthpiece between your lips and form a tight seal.
  • Inhale deeply and slowly through the mouthpiece, simultaneously pressing down on the canister to release the medication.
  • Hold your breath for 10 seconds or as long as comfortable, then exhale slowly.
  • Rinse your mouth with water after each use to minimize the risk of oral thrush.
  • Use Seroflo inhaler exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not exceed the recommended dosage or frequency of use.
  • It is usually recommended to use Seroflo inhaler twice daily, at evenly spaced intervals.

Precautions:

  • Inform your healthcare provider about any allergies, medical conditions, or medications you are currently taking before starting Seroflo therapy.
  • Do not use Seroflo inhaler for the relief of acute asthma or COPD symptoms. It is not a rescue inhaler and should not be used as a substitute for short-acting bronchodilators.
  • Regular monitoring of lung function may be necessary during treatment with Seroflo inhaler to ensure optimal control of asthma or COPD.
  • Do not abruptly discontinue Seroflo inhaler therapy without consulting your doctor, as this may lead to worsening of symptoms.
  • If you experience paradoxical bronchospasm (sudden worsening of breathing) after using Seroflo inhaler, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention.

Side Effects: Common side effects of Seroflo inhaler may include:

  • Sore throat
  • Hoarseness
  • Cough
  • Headache
  • Thrush (yeast infection in the mouth)

Less common but more serious side effects may include:

  • Difficulty breathing or wheezing immediately after using the inhaler (possible sign of paradoxical bronchospasm)
  • Increased heart rate
  • High blood pressure
  • Adrenal insufficiency (rare)

If you experience any severe side effects or allergic reactions, seek immediate medical attention. It is important to report any unexpected or bothersome symptoms to your healthcare provider.
