Contents of the pack and other information
1 WHAT SERETIDE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Seretide contains two medicines, salmeterol and fluticasone
propionate:
•
Salmeterol is a long-acting bronchodilator. Bronchodilators help the
airways in the lungs to stay open. This makes it easier for air to get
in and
out. The effects last for at least 12 hours.
•
Fluticasone propionate is a corticosteroid which reduces swelling and
irritation in the lungs.
The doctor has prescribed this medicine to help prevent breathing
problems such as:
•
Asthma
•
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Seretide Diskus, at a
dose of 50/500 micrograms, reduces the number of flare ups of COPD
symptoms.
You must use Seretide every day as directed by your doctor. This will
make sure that it works properly in controlling your asthma or COPD.
SERETIDE HELPS TO STOP BREATHLESSNESS AND WHEEZINESS COMING ON.
