SEROFLO ROTACAPS 250 – 1 BOTTLE OF 30 CAPSULE

SEROFLO ROTACAPS 250 provides a higher dose of Fluticasone Propionate, an inhaled corticosteroid, combined with Salmeterol, a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA). This dual-action inhaler targets both bronchoconstriction and inflammation, making it ideal for patients with more severe asthma or COPD who require consistent, long-term symptom control. The higher steroid dosage helps in managing inflammation more effectively, reducing the frequency and severity of flare-ups.

Usage Instructions:

• Dosage: Inhale one rotacap of SEROFLO 250 twice daily or as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
• Administration: Insert the rotacap into the inhaler device and inhale deeply through the mouthpiece, ensuring the medication reaches the lungs effectively.
• Consistency: Use consistently to maintain control over asthma and COPD symptoms, even when feeling well.

Medicinal Advantages:

• Higher Steroid Dosage: Offers increased anti-inflammatory effects, suitable for patients with severe symptoms.
• Dual Action: Combines a bronchodilator and corticosteroid to provide comprehensive management of respiratory conditions.
• Prevention: Helps prevent asthma attacks and COPD exacerbations, improving overall quality of life.

Mechanism of Action:

SEROFLO ROTACAPS 250 works through the combined actions of Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate. Salmeterol relaxes the muscles around the airways, keeping them open and making breathing easier. Fluticasone Propionate reduces inflammation in the lungs, preventing the onset of asthma and COPD symptoms. Together, they offer a robust solution for controlling chronic respiratory conditions.

Off-Label Uses:

While primarily indicated for asthma and COPD, SEROFLO ROTACAPS 250 may also be prescribed off-label for other inflammatory respiratory conditions, depending on a healthcare provider’s assessment.

Expert Advice:

• Regular Use: Adhere to the prescribed schedule to maintain control over symptoms and prevent flare-ups.
• Proper Technique: Use the inhaler correctly to ensure the full dose of medication is delivered to the lungs.
• Monitor Side Effects: Be aware of potential side effects like oral thrush, and rinse your mouth after each use to mitigate this risk.

Precautions:

1. Inhaler Technique: Ensure correct usage to maximize drug delivery and effectiveness.
2. Mouth Care: Rinse your mouth with water after each use to prevent oral thrush, a possible side effect of inhaled corticosteroids.
3. Not for Acute Relief: SEROFLO ROTACAPS 250 is not intended for acute asthma attacks; keep a rescue inhaler on hand for emergencies.
