WHAT VIANI IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Viani 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). Viani Diskus, at a dose
of 50/500 micrograms,
reduces the number of flare ups of COPD symptoms.
You must use Viani every day as directed by your doctor. This will
make sure that it works properly
in controlling your asthma or COPD.
VIANI HELPS TO STOP BREATHLESSNESS AND WHEEZINESS COMING ON. HOWEVER
VIANI SHOULD NOT BE USED
TO RELIEVE A SUD
