Fluticasone Furoate + Umeclidinium + Vilanterol

Fluticasone Furoate + Umeclidinium + Vilanterol is a triple-action inhalation medicine used for the long-term management of chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is specially designed for people who experience breathing difficulty, wheezing, chest tightness, and frequent flare-ups despite regular treatment.

Fluticasone Furoate is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation and swelling in the airways. Umeclidinium works by relaxing the airway muscles to keep them open, while Vilanterol is a long-acting bronchodilator that improves airflow and makes breathing easier. Together, these three ingredients provide better symptom control and long-lasting relief.

This combination helps reduce breathlessness, improves lung function, and lowers the risk of sudden breathing attacks. It is usually taken once daily using an inhaler, as prescribed by a doctor. When used regularly and correctly, Fluticasone Furoate + Umeclidinium + Vilanterol helps patients breathe more comfortably and maintain a better quality of life.
