Fluticasone Furoate
Indications/Uses
FLIXOTIDE has a marked anti-inflammatory effect in the lungs.
It reduces symptoms and exacerbations of asthma in patients previously treated with bronchodilator alone or with other prophylactic therapy.
Severe asthma requires regular medical assessment as death may occur. Patients with severe asthma have constant symptoms and frequent exacerbations, with limited physical capacity, and PEF values below 60% predicted at baseline with greater than 30% variability, usually not returning entirely to normal after a bronchodilator.
Dosage/Direction for Use
The onset of therapeutic effect is four to seven days, although some benefit may be apparent as soon as 24 hours for patients who have not previously received inhaled steroids.
If patients find that relief with short-acting bronchodilator treatment becomes less effective or they need more inhalations than usual, medical attention must be sought.
