Salmeterol 50 mcg + Fluticasone 250 mcg Powder for Inhalation (Rotacaps)
₹485.00
The Salmeterol 50 mcg + Fluticasone 250 mcg powder for inhalation (Rotacaps) is a combination medication primarily used for the long-term treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Key Information
- Active Ingredients: Salmeterol (50 mcg) and Fluticasone Propionate (250 mcg).
- Mechanism of Action: Salmeterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles in the airways to widen them, making breathing easier. Fluticasone Propionate is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways.
- Usage: It is a controller medication intended for regular, long-term maintenance treatment, not for relieving sudden asthma or COPD attacks. A separate quick-relief (rescue) inhaler should be used for sudden breathing problems.
- Administration: The medicine is for inhalation only and should not be swallowed. It is typically administered using a specific device called a Rotahaler or Revolizer. The user must place the capsule in the device, twist it to puncture, and breathe in the powder deeply.
- Common Side Effects: Nausea, vomiting, headache, cough, sore throat, hoarseness of voice, and fungal infections in the mouth (oral candidiasis). Rinsing the mouth with water after each use can help prevent oral thrush.
Important Precautions
- Do not stop using the medication without consulting a doctor, even if you feel well, as symptoms may return and worsen.
- The medication can increase blood sugar levels, so diabetic patients should monitor their levels carefully.
- Caution is advised for patients with liver or heart conditions, high blood pressure, or a history of seizures or osteoporosis.
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor to assess the potential benefits and risks.
