Product Description
R/C AIRFLOW 500 combines two potent medications: Salmeterol (50mcg) and Fluticasone (500mcg). This combination is widely used to manage and treat respiratory conditions, primarily chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. Salmeterol is a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA), while Fluticasone is a corticosteroid. Together, they offer a comprehensive approach to controlling and preventing symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and lung inflammation.
How Does It Work?
Mechanism of Action
- Salmeterol: This LABA works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, making breathing easier. Its long-acting nature ensures prolonged relief from bronchospasm, helping to keep the airways open.
- Fluticasone: This corticosteroid reduces inflammation within the lungs, decreasing the frequency and severity of asthma attacks and exacerbations of COPD. By controlling inflammation, Fluticasone helps improve overall lung function.
