Flutrol 250 Inhaler

Flutrol 250 Inhaler is a prescription device used for the management and prevention of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms. It generally contains Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the airways. By decreasing swelling and irritation in the bronchial passages, it helps prevent asthma attacks, wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. Regular use improves lung function, enhances respiratory comfort, and reduces the frequency of exacerbations. Flutrol 250 Inhaler delivers the medicine directly to the lungs, ensuring effective action with minimal systemic side effects. It is suitable for patients who require maintenance therapy to keep chronic respiratory conditions under control and should be used strictly under medical supervision.
