Patient summary
Indicated to manage asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and to alleviate respiratory inflammation by opening airways and reducing swelling.
Mechanism of action
This combination provides long-acting bronchodilation via salmeterol, which relaxes airway smooth muscles, and anti-inflammatory activity via fluticasone, which reduces airway hyper-responsiveness.
The active ingredients are fluticasone and salmeterol, supplied as an inhaler in 250/50 and 500/50mcg. It is used for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Salmeterol relaxes airway muscles; fluticasone reduces inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness. GSK is the originator company; Seretide is another name.
Use it regularly as a preventer; it is not for a sudden asthma or COPD attack, and salmeterol will not relieve one. Rinse the mouth after use to prevent thrush. It is contraindicated in people hypersensitive to any component. Beta-blockers and ritonavir interact with it. Paradoxical bronchospasm and severe allergic reactions need immediate medical attention. Those who have not had chickenpox or measles, or been properly immunised, should take care to avoid exposure. Monitoring for systemic corticosteroid effects and heart function is recommended.
