How Seroflo 125 Cfc In 120Md works

Fluticasone is an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces airway inflammation, swelling and mucus production. Salmeterol is a long-acting beta2-agonist that relaxes bronchial smooth muscle to keep airways open for up to ~12 hours. Together they improve breathing and reduce symptoms/exacerbations when used regularly.

Inhalation use only via metered dose inhaler. Use regularly as prescribed, usually 1–2 puffs twice daily; rinse mouth/gargle with water after each use and spit out.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
