Product Overview
Seroflo is a combination respiratory medication used for the long-term treatment and management of asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, and other obstructive airway disorders. It contains a corticosteroid to reduce airway inflammation and a long-acting bronchodilator to keep the airways open, helping patients breathe more easily and reducing the frequency of asthma attacks and COPD flare-ups.
Seroflo is available as both a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) and Rotacaps, allowing healthcare professionals to choose the most appropriate delivery system based on individual patient needs.

How It Works
Seroflo combines two proven respiratory medications:
Salmeterol
A Long-Acting Beta2-Agonist (LABA) that relaxes the muscles surrounding the airways, helping keep them open for extended periods and making breathing easier.
Fluticasone Propionate
An Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS) that reduces inflammation, swelling, and irritation inside the airways, helping prevent asthma symptoms and COPD exacerbations.
Together, these medications provide long-term control of respiratory symptoms and improve overall lung function.
