Advair Rotacaps (50mcg + 100mcg)

Uses: this product is used to control and prevent symptoms (Wheezing and shortness of breath) caused by asthma or ongoing lung disease (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-Copd, which includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema). It contains 2 medications: fluticasone and salmeterol. Fluticasone belongs to a class of drugs known as corticosteroids. It works by reducing the irritation and swelling of the airways. Salmeterol belongs to the class of drugs known as long-Acting beta agonists. It works by opening airways in the lungs to make breathing easier. Controlling symptoms of breathing problems can decrease time lost from work or school. When used alone, long-Acting beta agonists (Such as salmeterol) may rarely increase the risk of serious (Sometimes fatal) asthma-Related breathing problems. However, combination inhaled corticosteroid and long-Acting beta agonists, such as this product, do not increase the risk of serious asthma-Related breathing problems. For asthma treatment, this product should be used when breathing problems are not well controlled with one asthma-Control medication (Such as inhaled corticosteroid) or if your symptoms need combination treatment.
