Product details
FLUTICATONE VILO 200 is a combination inhalation therapy containing Fluticasone Furoate (200 mcg), a potent corticosteroid, and Vilanterol (25 mcg), a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA). This fixed-dose inhalation powder is specially formulated to manage and prevent symptoms associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, helping patients breathe more easily and maintain better lung function. This combination works synergistically—Fluticasone Furoate reduces inflammation and swelling in the airways, while Vilanterol relaxes the airway muscles, offering long-lasting bronchodilation.
