  7. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Uses of Seroflo Inhaler 50, 125 and 250: Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) is a combination of two medicines that are used to help control the symptoms of asthma and improve breathing. It is used when a patient's asthma has not been controlled sufficiently on other asthma medicines, or when a patient's condition is so severe that more than one medicine is needed every day. This medicine will not relieve an asthma attack that has already started. This medicine is also used to treat air flow blockage and reduce the worsening of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

  8. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Uses of Seroflo Inhaler 50, 125 and 250: Inhaled fluticasone belongs to the family of medicines known as corticosteroids or steroids (cortisone-like medicines). It works by preventing certain cells in the lungs and breathing passages from releasing substances that cause asthma symptoms. Inhaled salmeterol is a long-acting bronchodilator. Bronchodilators are medicines that are breathed in through the mouth to open up the bronchial tubes (air passages) in the lungs. It relieves cough, wheezing, shortness of breath, and troubled breathing by increasing the flow of air through the bronchial tubes. Seroflo Inhaler is NOT indicated for the relief of acute bronchospasm.

  13. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Warnings Serious Asthma-Related Events – Hospitalizations, Intubations, Death: Use of long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA) as monotherapy (without inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)) for asthma is associated with an increased risk of asthma-related death. Available data from controlled clinical trials also suggest that use of LABA as monotherapy increases the risk of asthma-related hospitalization in pediatric and adolescent patients. Deterioration of Disease and Acute Episodes: Seroflo Inhaler should not be initiated in patients during rapidly deteriorating or potentially life-threatening episodes of asthma. Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler (Seroflo Inhaler) has not been studied in subjects with acutely deteriorating asthma. URL: URL: https://www.theswisspharmacy.com/product_info.php?info=p9879_Seroflo-Inhaler.html https://www.theswisspharmacy.com/product_info.php?info=p9879_Seroflo-Inhaler.html © The Swiss Pharmacy

  14. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Warnings Excessive Use of Fluticasone and Salmeterol Inhaler and Use with Other Long-acting Beta2-agonists: Seroflo Inhaler should not be used more often than recommended, at higher doses than recommended, or in conjunction with other medicines containing LABA, as an overdose may result. Clinically significant cardiovascular effects and fatalities have been reported in association with excessive use of inhaled sympathomimetic drugs. Local Effects of Inhaled Corticosteroids: In clinical trials, the development of localized infections of the mouth and pharynx with Candida albicans has occurred in subjects treated with Seroflo Inhaler. When such an infection develops, it should be treated with appropriate local or systemic (i.e., oral) antifungal therapy while treatment with Seroflo Inhaler continues, but at times therapy with Seroflo Inhaler may need to be interrupted. Advise the patient to rinse his/her mouth with water without swallowing following inhalation to help reduce the risk of oropharyngeal candidiasis. © The Swiss Pharmacy

  15. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Warnings Pneumonia: Lower respiratory tract infections, including pneumonia, have been reported in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) following the inhaled administration of corticosteroids, including Fluticasone Propionate and Fluticasone and Salmeterol Inhaler. Immunosuppression: Persons who are using medicines that suppress the immune system are more susceptible to infections than healthy individuals. Chickenpox and measles, for example, can have a more serious or even fatal course in susceptible children or adults using corticosteroids. In such children or adults who have not had these diseases or been properly immunized, particular care should be taken to avoid exposure.

  16. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Warnings Transferring Patients from Systemic Corticosteroid Therapy: Particular care is needed for patients who have been transferred from systemically active corticosteroids to ICS because deaths due to adrenal insufficiency have occurred in patients with asthma during and after transfer from systemic corticosteroids to less systemically available ICS. After withdrawal from systemic corticosteroids, a number of months are required for recovery of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) function.

  19. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Overdosage There are no data available from clinical trials on overdose with Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler (Seroflo Inhaler). However data on overdose with both the individual medicines are given below: The signs and symptoms of salmeterol overdose are tremor, headache and tachycardia. The preferred antidotes are cardioselective beta- blocking agents, which should be used with caution in patients with a history of bronchospasm. In case Seroflo Inhaler therapy has to be withdrawn due to overdose of the beta agonist component of the drug, provision of appropriate replacement steroid therapy should be considered. Additionally, hypokalaemia can occur and potassium replacement should be considered. © The Swiss Pharmacy

  20. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Overdosage Acute: Acute inhalation of Fluticasone Propionate doses in excess of those recommended may lead to temporary suppression of adrenal function. This does not need emergency action as adrenal function is recovered in a few days, as verified by plasma cortisol measurements. Chronic Overdose of Inhaled Fluticasone Propionate: Adrenal reserve should be monitored and treatment with a systemic corticosteroid may be necessary. When stabilised, treatment should be continued with an inhaled corticosteroid at the recommended dose. In cases of both acute and chronic Fluticasone Propionate overdose SFC therapy may still be continued at a suitable dosage for symptom control.

  21. Seroflo Inhaler (Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler) Seroflo Inhaler During Pregnancy Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler (Seroflo Inhaler) has been classified by the US FDA as Pregnancy Category C. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies with Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate Inhaler (Seroflo Inhaler) in pregnant women. Fluticasone and Salmeterol Inhaler was teratogenic in mice and not in rats, although it lowered fetal weight in rats. Fluticasone propionate alone was teratogenic in mice, rats, and rabbits, and Salmeterol alone was teratogenic in rabbits and not in rats. From the reproduction toxicity studies in mice and rats, no evidence of enhanced toxicity was seen using combinations of Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol Xinafoate when compared with toxicity data from the components administered separately. Seroflo Inhaler should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. © The Swiss Pharmacy
