What is Seroflo 125 Inhaler?

A combination inhaler containing Salmeterol (a long-acting bronchodilator) and Fluticasone Propionate (a corticosteroid). It helps open airways, reduces inflammation, and improves breathing in:

• Asthma (prevents symptoms like wheezing & breathlessness)

• COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)

Key Benefits

✔ COPD: Relieves chest tightness, coughing, and shortness of breath.
✔ Asthma: Prevents exercise-induced attacks and reduces triggers (e.g., pollen, dust).

How to Use

1. Shake well before use.

2. Inhale deeply while pressing the inhaler.

3. Hold breath for 10 seconds, then exhale.

4. Rinse mouth after use to prevent oral thrush (fungal infection).

⚠️ Important:

• Not for sudden asthma attacks (use a “reliever” inhaler instead).

• Use regularly, even if symptom-free.

Side Effects

Common (usually mild):

• Cough, sore throat, hoarse voice

• Headache, nausea, fungal mouth infections

• Fast heartbeat, muscle/joint pain

Rare but serious: Consult a doctor if you experience:

• Worsening breathing, vision problems, or mood changes.

Safety Advice

• Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Consult a doctor.

• Alcohol: Safety unknown—ask your doctor.

• Kidney/Liver Disease: Dose adjustment may be needed.

• Smoking: Avoid—it worsens lung conditions.

If You Miss a Dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If close to the next dose, skip the missed one. Do NOT double dose.

How It Works

• Salmeterol: Relaxes airway muscles for easier breathing.

• Fluticasone: Reduces inflammation in the lungs.

💡 Pro Tip: Keep a symptom diary to track triggers and improvement. Always follow your doctor’s instructions for best results.
