Fluticasone Propionate Diskus

Drug Details

Fluticasone, marketed as Flovent, is an inhaled corticosteroid prescribed for the long-term management of asthma in individuals aged four and above. This medication is designed to reduce inflammation and open the airways in the lungs, thereby making breathing easier. By lowering lung inflammation, Fluticasone helps in controlling asthma symptoms, such as wheezing and shortness of breath, and reduces the frequency and severity of asthma attacks. It is important to use this inhaler regularly, twice a day, to achieve optimal results. However, Fluticasone is not intended for immediate relief during an asthma attack. In such cases, a quick-relief inhaler should be used as directed by your healthcare provider.
