BECAUSE IT CONTAINS IMPORTANT
INFORMATION FOR YOU.
•
KEEP THIS LEAFLET. YOU MAY NEED IT TO READ IT AGAIN.

IF YOU HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK YOUR DOCTOR OR YOUR
PHARMACIST.
•
THIS MEDICINE HAS BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR YOU PERSONALLY AND YOU SHOULD

EFFECTS NOT LISTED IN THIS LEAFLET. SEE SECTION 4.
Sereflo 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.
You must use Sereflo every day as directed by your doctor. This will
make sure that it works
properly in controlling your asthma.
SEREFLO HELPS TO STOP BREATHLESSNESS AND WHEEZINESS COMING ON.
HOWEVER, SEREFLO SHOULD NOT BE
USED TO RELIEVE A SUDDEN ATTACK OF BREATHLESSNESS OR WHEEZING. IF THIS
HAPPENS YOU NEED TO USE A
FAST-ACTING ‘RELIEVER’ (‘RESCUE’) INHALER, SUCH AS SALBUTAMOL.
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE YOUR FAST-
ACTING ‘RESCUE’ INHALER WITH YOU.

If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to salmeterol, fluticasone
propionate or to the other ingredient
norflurane (HFA134a).
