Seroflo 500 Rotacap 30

Seroflo Rotacaps is used for the following:

• Long-term management of bronchial asthma in adults and adolescents over 12 years.

• Maintenance treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including conditions like chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

• Aiding in reducing the frequency of exacerbations in patients with airflow obstruction due to COPD.

Using Seroflo Rotacaps involves a few simple steps:

• You need to use the Rotahaler device to inhale this medicine.

• After inhaling, rinse your mouth with water, but avoid swallowing it; this can help lower the risk of developing a fungal infection in your mouth or throat.

• Store the medicine at room temperature, protected from light and moisture.

• Always remember that your doctor is the best person to guide you about using this medicine. Consult them if you have any doubts.

Seroflo Rotacaps is taken orally through inhalation.

Seroflo Rotacaps contains two active ingredients:

• Fluticasone propionate (500 mcg): As a synthetic corticosteroid, fluticasone propionate exhibits strong anti-inflammatory activity within the lungs. It binds to glucocorticoid receptors, thereby inhibiting the release of inflammatory substances like leukotrienes and prostaglandins. This action reduces airway inflammation, hyperresponsiveness, and mucus secretion.

• Salmeterol (50 mcg): Classified as a long-acting, selective beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist, salmeterol stimulates the beta2-receptors in lung cells. This stimulation leads to relaxation of bronchial smooth muscles, causing bronchodilation or widening of air passages. This improves airflow and helps ease breathing difficulties.

Together, these two components enhance lung function, reduce symptoms of asthma and COPD, and improve the overall quality of life for patients living with these chronic respiratory conditions.

• Store your Seroflo Rotacaps in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays between 20°C and 25°C.

• Keep it away from direct light and moisture to maintain its efficacy.

• Ensure the medicine is kept out of reach of children.

• Always check the expiry date before use.

• If you're dealing with asthma or COPD, try to maintain a diet rich in fruits and vegetables. These foods are loaded with antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation in your lungs.

• Regular exercise is key for lung health. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise like brisk walking or cycling, five days a week. However, consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
