Formoterol + Salmeterol
Uses
Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate are used in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
How it Works
How Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate work: Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate is a combination of two medications: Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate. Salmeterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles in the airways and widens them. Fluticasone Propionate is a steroid that inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers responsible for inflammation (swelling) of the airways. Together, they facilitate easier breathing.
Side Effects
Common side effects of Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate include headache, cough, upper respiratory tract infection, nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the throat and nasal passages), sinus inflammation, stomach discomfort, fungal infection of the oropharynx, tremors, palpitations, and voice changes.
Expert Advice
- This medicine is for inhalation only.
- The tablet should not be swallowed.
- It should be taken at the same time each day.
- It does not work immediately and should not be used to relieve sudden breathing problems.
- Use your rescue inhaler to manage sudden difficulty in breathing.
- Dry mouth may occur as a side effect. To alleviate this:
- Frequent mouth rinses
- Good oral hygiene
- Increased water intake
- Sugarless candy
- Gargle with warm water after each inhalation to prevent fungal infections in your mouth and throat.
- Take the first dose of this medicine under medical supervision, as it may cause wheezing or tightening of the airways (bronchospasm) immediately after use.
- Your doctor may regularly monitor your blood potassium levels, as low oxygen levels in the blood (hypoxia) and medications such as Salmeterol + Fluticasone Propionate can lower blood potassium levels.
- Only minimal amounts of Salmeterol + Fluticasone Propionate may be absorbed into the bloodstream after inhalation; hence, serious side effects are unlikely.
