Advair MDI Inhaler
Advair MDI Inhaler is a combination medication containing Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid, and Salmeterol, a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA). This inhaler is prescribed for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It helps reduce airway inflammation and relaxes airway muscles, improving breathing and reducing the frequency of asthma attacks or COPD exacerbations.
Key Information:
- Indication: Long-term management of asthma and COPD symptoms.
- Form: Metered-dose inhaler (MDI) delivering a fixed dose of Fluticasone and Salmeterol.
- Dosages: Available in strengths of 125/25 mcg and 250/25 mcg per inhalation.
- Mechanism of Action: Combines anti-inflammatory effects of Fluticasone with the bronchodilatory action of Salmeterol.
How to Use Advair MDI Inhaler
- Shake the inhaler well before each use.
- Prime the inhaler if using it for the first time or if it hasn’t been used for more than 7 days.
- Exhale completely before placing the mouthpiece into your mouth.
- Press the canister while inhaling deeply through your mouth, then hold your breath for about 10 seconds.
- Rinse your mouth with water after use to reduce the risk of oral thrush.
- Use as directed by your healthcare provider, typically twice daily, 12 hours apart.
Dosage
- Asthma: Use the prescribed dosage based on symptom severity and response to treatment.
- COPD: Typically, the dosage is adjusted to maintain optimal breathing control.
- Always follow your doctor’s recommendations for the best results.
Side Effects
While Advair MDI Inhaler is effective, some patients may experience side effects, including:
- Common: Headache, throat irritation, cough, or hoarseness.
- Serious: Rapid heartbeat, chest pain, or worsening breathing problems. Contact your doctor immediately if these occur.
- Precautionary: Long-term use of corticosteroids may weaken bones and increase infection risk.
Precautions
- Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart conditions, high blood pressure, or diabetes.
- Do not use this inhaler for sudden breathing problems; always have a rescue inhaler for emergencies.
- Use only as prescribed, and do not stop using it suddenly without medical advice.
Storage
- Store at room temperature (68°F to 77°F or 20°C to 25°C).
- Avoid exposure to heat or direct sunlight.
- Do not puncture or burn the canister, even when empty.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
