Seroflo Multihaler

Product Overview

Seroflo Multihaler is an inhalation therapy medication combining Salmeterol (50mcg) and Fluticasone Propionate (500mcg) in a convenient multi-haler device. Designed for direct lung administration, this combination inhaler is widely prescribed for long-term asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management. It enhances lung function and reduces airway inflammation.

Uses

Seroflo Multihaler helps control and prevent asthma and COPD symptoms, including wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing. Salmeterol, a long-acting beta agonist (LABA), relaxes airway muscles for easier breathing, while Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid, minimizes inflammation to prevent asthma attacks and COPD flare-ups.

How to Use

1. Remove the cap and shake the inhaler well.
2. Exhale fully, place the mouthpiece between your lips, and inhale deeply while pressing the canister to release the dose.
3. Hold your breath for 10 seconds, then exhale slowly.
4. Rinse your mouth after use to prevent oral thrush.
Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for optimal results.

How It Works

– **Salmeterol**: Binds to beta-2 receptors in airway muscles, promoting relaxation and bronchodilation for improved airflow.
– **Fluticasone Propionate**: Reduces inflammation by blocking inflammatory mediators and immune cell activity.
Together, they provide effective symptom control for asthma and COPD.

Dosage and Administration

The typical dose for adults and children (12+ years) is two inhalations twice daily (morning and evening). Dosage may be adjusted based on symptom severity and lung function. Consistent use is vital, even when symptoms improve, to maintain condition control.

Benefits

• Long-term asthma and COPD management
• User-friendly multi-haler design
• Dual-action formula (bronchodilator + anti-inflammatory)
• Improves lung function and reduces airway inflammation
• Prevents asthma attacks and COPD exacerbations

Common Side Effects

Mild side effects may include headache, throat irritation, hoarseness, cough, or oral thrush. Consult your doctor if these persist. Rare but serious effects (e.g., rapid heart rate, chest pain, tremors, breathing difficulties) require immediate medical attention.

Warnings

– **Not for acute relief**: Use a rescue inhaler (e.g., albuterol) for sudden symptoms.
– **Asthma risk**: May increase asthma-related death in severe cases. Seek help for chest pain, palpitations, or worsening breathing.
