Relvar Ellipta is a medication designed to help manage asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This inhaler contains two active ingredients, fluticasone furoate (an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid) and vilanterol (a long-acting beta agonist), which work together to reduce inflammation in your airways and help you breathe more easily. Relvar Ellipta is suitable for adults and adolescents with asthma or COPD that is not well controlled with a regular inhaler.
About Relvar Ellipta
Dosage and usage
For asthma, the usual dose is one inhalation once a day. If you have COPD, the recommended dose is one inhalation daily as well. It's important to use Relvar Ellipta regularly to get the most benefit. Remember not to exceed the prescribed dose, as it will not improve your condition faster and may increase the risk of side effects. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it's almost time for your next dose. In case of any concerns about your dosage or usage, consult your healthcare provider.
What Relvar Ellipta contains
Each dose of Relvar Ellipta contains 92 micrograms of fluticasone furoate and 22 micrograms of vilanterol. The inhaler also includes lactose monohydrate as an excipient. It's important to note that this inhaler does not contain any chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) as propellants.
Side effects
Common side effects of Relvar Ellipta may include headache, throat irritation, and a hoarse voice. However, some people may experience more serious side effects such as increased heart rate, high blood pressure, or worsening breathing problems. Seek immediate medical attention if you notice symptoms like chest pain, severe dizziness, or a sudden decrease in your peak flow meter readings.
Precautions
Do not use Relvar Ellipta if you are allergic to fluticasone furoate, vilanterol, or any other ingredients in the inhaler. It's important to inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions you have, especially if you have a heart condition, high blood pressure, diabetes, or thyroid problems. Additionally, let your doctor know about any medications you are taking, including herbal supplements and over-the-counter drugs, to avoid potential interactions. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, discuss the risks and benefits of using Relvar Ellipta with your healthcare provider.
