Advair

Advair is a prescription inhaler used to manage asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains two medicines: fluticasone, a steroid that reduces airway inflammation, and salmeterol, a long-acting bronchodilator that helps keep airways open. Regular use helps prevent symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing, and can decrease the frequency of asthma attacks. Advair is not for immediate relief during an attack; it’s designed for maintenance therapy. Proper inhaler technique and adherence are important for effective management. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions when using Advair.
