What is Seroflo Rotacaps

Seroflo 100 Rotacaps contains two medications that widen the airways and make breathing easier.

They are used in patients to treat and prevent Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorders (a lung condition in which airflow to the lungs is obstructed) and Asthma (which causes wheezing and shortness of breath) 

It has two salts: Fluticasone Propionate (100mcg) and Salmeterol (50mcg).

Cipla is the renowned manufacturer of Seroflo 100 Rotacaps.

Your physician will prescribe this medication and instruct you on how often to use it.

Uses of Seroflo Rotacaps

It is recommended for the regular treatment of Asthma and COPD in patients. 

It is for treating those patients for whom the combination of Salmeterol (long-acting beta2-agonist) and Fluticasone Propionate (inhaled corticosteroid) has been considered appropriate. 

Asthma 

Asthma is a chronic inflammation of the airways, which results in repeated episodes of wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung disease that inhibits airflow and causes breathing difficulties.

Because of this blockage, individuals have difficulty breathing or become exhausted due to the strain of breathing. COPD includes Chronic Bronchitis, Emphysema, or a combination of the two conditions.

Working of Seroflo Rotacaps 

Seroflo 100 Rotacaps contain two salts, Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate.

Salmeterol is a Beta2-Adrenergic receptor agonist with long-lasting effects, prescribed for Asthma and COPD. It enlarges the lung airways, which facilitates breathing. It works in the airways to relax muscles and improve oxygen flow.

Fluticasone Propionate is a Glucocorticoid. It reduces the production of chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that causes airway inflammation (swelling). It also reduces sneezing, a runny or plugged nose, and sinus pain. 

Together they manage the symptoms in patients with Asthma or COPD.
