Fluticasone vilanterol 100 25 mcg brand?

What brand is fluticasone/vilanterol 100/25 mcg?

Fluticasone vilanterol in a 100/25 mcg strength is sold under the brand Breo Ellipta in many markets. It’s a fixed-dose combination inhaler (an inhaled corticosteroid plus a long-acting beta2 agonist) used to manage COPD and, in some jurisdictions, asthma.

What conditions is Breo Ellipta (fluticasone vilanterol) used for?

Breo Ellipta is used as a maintenance treatment to improve lung function in COPD and to reduce exacerbations in eligible patients. Depending on local labeling, it can also be used for asthma as controller therapy when patients need both an inhaled steroid and a LABA.

How is the 100/25 mcg dose typically taken?

Breo Ellipta is usually taken as a once-daily inhalation dose. Patients follow the prescribed daily schedule and use it as a maintenance inhaler (not for immediate relief of sudden breathing problems).

Are there other similar strengths (and how do they differ)?

Common fluticasone/vilanterol products come in multiple strengths (for example, different microgram amounts of fluticasone while vilanterol stays at 25 mcg). If you’re trying to match a prescription, the key is the two-number strength (fluticasone/vilanterol), not just the “100” or “25” alone.
