Seretide 25/250 MDI (Metered Dose Inhaler)

Seretide 25/250 MDI (Metered Dose Inhaler) | Treat Asthma & COPD | Fast & Effective Relief

Seretide 25/250 MDI (Metered Dose Inhaler) is an advanced medication designed to manage and treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This inhaler contains two active ingredients: Fluticasone Propionate (a corticosteroid) and Salmeterol (a long-acting beta agonist). Fluticasone helps reduce inflammation in the airways, making it easier to breathe, while Salmeterol relaxes the muscles around the airways, further enhancing airflow and providing long-lasting relief from symptoms.

This combination treatment is especially useful for patients who require regular maintenance therapy to prevent asthma attacks or COPD flare-ups. With a convenient metered-dose inhaler, Seretide offers a quick and precise dose of medication, ensuring that you receive the right amount every time.

Seretide 25/250 MDI is formulated to help:

• Control symptoms of asthma and COPD
• Reduce the frequency of asthma attacks
• Relieve wheezing and shortness of breath
• Provide sustained symptom relief with twice-daily use

By using Fluticasone and Salmeterol together, Seretide targets both the underlying inflammation and muscle constriction, offering a dual approach to managing chronic respiratory conditions.

Regular use of Seretide MDI can improve overall lung function, reduce the need for rescue medication, and enhance the quality of life for individuals with asthma or COPD. Always consult your healthcare provider to ensure that Seretide is the right treatment for your condition.
