Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler

Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler is a prescription combination inhaler used for asthma control. Each Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler contains salmeterol and fluticasone propionate in the 250 strength as labelled, combining a long-acting bronchodilator with an inhaled corticosteroid. It helps reduce airway inflammation and keeps the airways open to improve breathing over time, rather than treating a sudden asthma attack. This product is meant for ongoing maintenance treatment when a clinician has decided a higher-strength controller is appropriate.

How it works: Salmeterol relaxes the muscles around the airways so breathing passages stay open longer. Fluticasone propionate reduces swelling and irritation inside the lungs, and when inhaled together in Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler they help prevent day-to-day asthma symptoms.

Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler is the higher-strength version compared with Seroflo 125 Synchrobreathe, so it delivers a stronger anti-inflammatory dose of fluticasone propionate along with salmeterol. A doctor may choose Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler for people whose asthma is not well controlled on a lower strength, or when a stronger maintenance inhaler is needed. It is not a rescue inhaler, and higher strength does not mean faster relief during an asthma flare.

• Long-term asthma control
• Maintenance treatment to reduce wheezing
• Helps prevent shortness of breath
• Lowers airway inflammation
• Reduces nighttime asthma symptoms

• Use Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler exactly as prescribed; it is an inhalation medicine, not a tablet or chewable.
• Inhale one dose through the mouthpiece as directed by your clinician, then breathe out slowly away from the device.
• Use it regularly for control, even when you feel well; it does not replace a quick-relief inhaler for sudden symptoms.
• Rinse your mouth and spit after each use to help lower the risk of oral thrush and hoarseness.
• Do not take extra doses for sudden breathing trouble; use your rescue inhaler and get medical help if symptoms are severe.
• If your doctor told you a specific morning/evening schedule, follow that timing consistently.

Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler provides the 250 strength as labeled in each inhaler, which is a higher maintenance strength than Seroflo 125 Synchrobreathe. How often it is used and the maximum number of inhalations per day depend on the prescriber’s plan and the patient’s asthma severity, so the doctor decides the exact dose. Do not increase the frequency on your own, because too much salmeterol or fluticasone can raise the risk of side effects.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Salmeterol + Fluticasone Propionate may include:

• Throat irritation
• Hoarseness or voice changes
• Cough after inhalation
• Headache
• Oral thrush in the mouth
• Mild tremor or shakiness
• Fast heartbeat or palpitations

• Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler is a higher-strength controller and should be used only if a clinician has assessed that this dose is appropriate.
• It should not be used to treat sudden asthma attacks or rapidly worsening breathing symptoms.
• Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid disease, seizures, glaucoma, cataracts, or osteoporosis.
• Long-term or higher-dose inhaled steroid use may increase the risk of oral thrush and, in some people, affect bone density or eye pressure.
• Use caution if you have a history of unusual heart rhythm or if you feel palpitations after inhalation.
• Do not stop this inhaler suddenly without medical advice, especially if you have been using it regularly.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor whether Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler is right for you.

• Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, ritonavir, or cobicistat can increase steroid exposure.
• Other LABA-containing inhalers or medicines can increase the risk of side effects if used together.
• Beta-blockers may reduce the bronchodilator effect and can worsen asthma in some people.
• MAO inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants may increase the chance of heart-related side effects.
• Certain diuretics or other medicines that lower potassium can raise the risk of low potassium when combined with beta-agonists.

Store Seroflo Ecopack 250 Inhaler at room temperature in a dry place, away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight, and keep it in the original package until use.
