solution to inhale by mouth using a specially designed inhaler. The patient inhales the
Salmeterol first and then waits 5 minutes before inhaling the Fluticasone.

- Albuterol is used to prevent and treat wheezing, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, and
coughing caused by lung diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD).

- Using a spacer reduces the risk of side effects, such as oral thrush, that can occur when
using an inhaler that contains corticosteroids. After using the inhaler, especially one that
contains a class of medication called corticosteroids, gargle with water and spit it out. This
helps prevent thrush.
