Hiflo Rotacaps

Product Overview

Hiflo Rotacaps 100 is a respiratory medication combining Salmeterol and Fluticasone propionate. This dual-action formulation provides effective management for asthma and related respiratory conditions.

Uses

This medication is prescribed for:

• Prevention and maintenance treatment of asthma
