How Esiflo 250 Transcaps Works

Fluticasone is an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces airway inflammation, swelling and mucus production. Formoterol is a long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA) that relaxes airway smooth muscles to keep airways open for easier breathing. Together they prevent symptoms like wheeze and breathlessness when used regularly.

Dosage & Directions

For inhalation use only via a compatible dry powder inhaler/rotahaler-type device; do not swallow the capsule. Use exactly as prescribed, usually at the same time each day. Rinse mouth/gargle with water after each use and spit out to reduce risk of oral thrush.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
