Posology: Asthma: patients not adequately controlled with inhaled corticosteroids and ‘as needed’ inhaled short-acting beta2-agonists.

Patients usually experience an improvement in lung function within 15 minutes of inhaling Relvar Ellipta. However, the patient should be informed that regular daily usage is necessary to maintain control of asthma symptoms and that use should be continued even when asymptomatic.
If symptoms arise in the period between doses, an inhaled, short-acting beta2-agonist should be taken for immediate relief.
