Seretide Accuhaler 50/100 MCG Inhaler 1 contains two active ingredients:

• Fluticasone propionate (100 mcg): This is a synthetic corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the airways. It blocks inflammatory substances like prostaglandins and leukotrienes, which cause swelling and narrowing of the airways, making it difficult to breathe.
• Salmeterol (50 mcg): This is a long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA) that functions as a bronchodilator. It relaxes the smooth muscles surrounding the airways, widening them and making breathing easier. The effects of salmeterol typically last for about 12 hours, providing long-lasting relief.

• If you have asthma or COPD, try to maintain a dust-free living environment by regularly cleaning your home and using allergen-proof covers for pillows and mattresses.
• Regular moderate exercise like walking or swimming can help strengthen your lungs and improve breathing capacity, but always warm up gradually before any physical activity.
