Vilfuro 100 Capsule is a combination medicine that works through the synergistic effects of its two active ingredients:

• Fluticasone furoate (100 mcg): This synthetic corticosteroid binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the lungs. As a result, it suppresses the production of inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and curtails the activity of immune cells. This anti-inflammatory action reduces airway swelling, mucus secretion, and hyperresponsiveness, thus helping to manage respiratory symptoms.

• Vilanterol (25 mcg): Vilanterol stimulates the beta2-adrenergic receptors in the airways, relaxing smooth muscles and causing bronchodilation. With a rapid onset and extended duration of action, vilanterol provides sustained relief from bronchospasms, aiding in easier breathing.

• Always store Vilfuro 100 Capsule in a dry place, below 25°C.

• To maintain its efficacy, keep it away from light and moisture.

• Just as importantly, ensure it's kept out of children's reach.

• Lastly, remember to use this medicine before its expiration date.

• If you're managing asthma or COPD with Vilfuro 100 Capsule, avoiding tobacco smoke is crucial. Both first-hand and second-hand smoke can worsen your condition.

• A diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help. They contain antioxidants that may help reduce lung inflammation associated with these respiratory conditions.
