Fluticasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It works by decreasing swelling and irritation in the airways to allow for easier breathing.Fluticasone comes as an aerosol to inhale by mouth. Fluticasone is usually inhaled twice a day. Try to use fluticasone at around the same times every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Use fluticasone exactly as directed. Do not use more or less of it or use it more often than prescribed by your doctor.Talk to your doctor about how you should use your other oral and inhaled medications for asthma during your treatment with fluticasone inhalation. If you were taking an oral steroid such as dexamethasone (Decadron Dexone) methylprednisolone (Medrol) or prednisone (Deltasone) your doctor may want to gradually decrease your steroid dose starting at least 1 week after you begin to use fluticasone. Special care will be needed in certain situations for several months as your body adjusts to the change in medication. Ask your doctor for more information.Fluticasone helps to prevent asthma attacks (sudden episodes of shortness of breath wheezing and coughing) but will not stop an asthma attack that has already started. Do not use fluticasone during an asthma attack. Your doctor will prescribe a short-acting inhaler to use during asthma attacks.Your doctor will probably start you on an average dose of fluticasone. Your doctor may decrease your dose when your symptoms are controlled or increase it if your symptoms have not improved after at least 2 weeks.Fluticasone controls asthma but does not cure it. Your symptoms may improve 24 hours after you begin using fluticasone but it may take 2 weeks or longer before you feel the full benefit of the medication.

Call your doctor if you have an asthma attack that does not stop when you use your fast acting asthma medication or if you need to use more of your fast acting medication than usual.The inhaler that comes with fluticasone aerosol is designed for use only with a canister of fluticasone. Never use it to inhale any other medication and never use any other inhaler to inhale fluticasone.Each canister of fluticasone aerosol is designed to provide 60 or 120 inhalations depending on its size. After the labeled number of inhalations has been used later inhalations may not contain the correct amount of medication. You should keep track of the number of inhalations you have used. You can divide the number of inhalations in your inhaler by the number of inhalations you use each day to find out how many days your inhaler will last. Throw away the canister after you have used the labeled number of inhalations even if it still contains some liquid and continues to release a spray when it is pressed. Do not float the canister in water to see if it still contains medication.Before you use your fluticasone aerosol inhaler the first time read the written instructions that come with it. Look at the diagrams carefully and be sure that you recognize all the parts of the inhaler. Ask your doctor pharmacist or respiratory therapist to show you how to use it. Practice using the inhaler while he or she watches.Do not use your fluticasone inhaler while you are near an open flame or a heat source. The inhaler may explode if it is exposed to very high temperatures. Buy FLOEASE Flixotide and other Prescription Drugs 7 products online at Medstore. 531
