Fluticasone Furoate-Vilanterol

Fluticasone Furoate-Vilanterol is a combination inhalation medication used for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. It combines fluticasone furoate, an inhaled corticosteroid, which helps reduce inflammation, and vilanterol, a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA), which helps to relax the muscles of the airways and improve airflow. This combination is effective in managing respiratory symptoms and improving lung function.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Fluticasone Furoate-Vilanterol Work?

Vilanterol acts by stimulating beta-2 adrenergic receptors, leading to bronchodilation, or the widening of the air passages in the lungs. Together, these actions help alleviate symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing.
